what’s the next step?
hi everyone. So I only managed zoladex for 4 months. To put it lightly they affected my mental wellbeing so much I hated myself on them. As well the severe joint pains and hair issues. I’m seeing my endo nurse tomorrow for a follow up. And I don’t really know what the next step is for me. I had my first

Paniking
Over the last 7 years I have been struggling with my health and, eventually diagnosed with Sjogrens syndrome and Fybromyalgia. I have now been told I have fatty liver and terrified 😨. On new years day I was taken to hospital by paramedics, who I think thought I was having a heart attack; my blood pressure

PMR/ Hypothroidism
Hello! I had PMR and was totally let down by doctors at surgery, I managed to wean slowly off steroids myself, after 2 years and I’ve been medication free for 8 months!!! However, I wanted to have inflammatory markers checked, had discomfort in shoulder my markers were the best they’ve ever been! Happy

Pre Op assessment
I was diagnosed in July with stage 4 endo/adeno, bilateral endometriomas and a frozen pelvis, large ovarian cysts, enlarged falopian tubes following MRI and various ultrasounds. I have been on prostrop since, while on the waiting list for surgery. Last month I received a call from the endo nurse saying

BP readings way out of kilter!
Newbie here so please be gentle if my query is in the re-inventing the wheel category. I've had elevated BP for many years and have been on Amlodipine and Irbesartan for 5+ years. I was called into my GP surgery yesterday morning for a BP check. The clinician checked it manually and got a reading

2nd recurrence
Hi Ladies as you know I have already posted that I have started treatment for a 2nd recurrence of my Stage 2 OC. I was diagnosed in 2021 and had surgery and 6 cycles of successful Chemo. I started to feel unwell around October time with upper right back pain. CT and MRI were clear. CA125 did start

Hi, everyone, I am new here. I have had bouts of sciatica over the years but none have been as bad as this one. It has been going on for 6 weeks now. The first 4 weeks it affected my left side right down to my left big toe. I was able to walk, even though the pain caused some discomfort. I always

So very grateful for Thyroid UK
I just have to express my gratitude to this forum and the admins who give of their time to help us who are or have been floundering with NHS input (or lack of input+even dismissiveness of our thyroid journey) with regard to our thyroid and other connected issues. My son will be 48 this year and that’

Tibilone experiences
Hi. I have very severe endometriosis and adenomyosis and am awaiting surgery which will likely involve having a stoma. I’ve previously had left ovary removed and both tubes and I’ve recently been told my right ovary is failing. Unfortunately there was been little improvement to my Endometriosis even

PMR vs Fibro - follow up to my post
Thanks for all the comments on my first post. It was very helpful. So I put in an e consult to make an appointment with doc for review of my PMR and pred dosage. I arrived at the surgery and discovered that I actually had an appointment with the physio, not the doc. So much for AI! 🙄 Anyway, we

Adenomyosis and hysterectomy
Hi, I was diagnosed with Adenomyosis and signs of endometriosis in 2019, been on the hysterectomy waiting list for 2 years and now I’m booked for surgery on 5th March. Now it’s getting closer I’m getting nervous and would just like to hear from anyone who’s had a hysterectomy and how the recovery was

New here - looking for advice
Hi, I’m new here. I’ve suspected endo for about 12 years and am hoping that I’ll be getting clarity from my GP soon. Any info in the meantime would be super reassuring. I recently went for a scan and 3 endometriomas were noted. Does this confirm endometriosis? My GP ordered a CA-125. Do you know

Bowel obstruction with HGOC stage 4a inoperable
Hi, I haven’t posted in a long while but appreciate reading everyone’s advice and support to everyone else. I had 3 attempts at surgery last year including the last with Christina F but all were unsuccessful due to extensive miliary disease on the bowel. I went back on 2 chemos so I could start on
