Mom and ICU
In December 2023, my mom learned she has colon cancer. On December 28, 2023 she went into the hospital to have a colon resection to remove the cancerous area. This was done robotically. After the surgery she was groggy but responsive. On day 2 post op my mom started having delirium (hospital psychosis

Hello all, Big cardio surgery history, last one 25 years ago, still here thanks to surgeons who were willing to take risks where others weren't! Developed AFib 5 years ago. Had a cryo, success for 2 years then a redo RF, success for 18 months but also had more cardio versions that you can shake a stick

How long were your symptoms relieved after surgery?
Hello 😊, I had my laparoscopy just over a month ago. They removed adhesions from left ovary and bowel. I feel like the symptoms I had before are ramping back up again but I don’t know if it’s all in my head or if it’s because I’m still healing from the op. I’m waiting for my follow up appointment

Chemo question
Hello everyone, I was diagnosed with stage 4 ovarian cancer a couple days before last Christmas so I am early in my journey and feeling very scared and discouraged. Since my tumor is too large, I can’t have surgery yet. I had my first taxol/carboplatin treatment last week. I had an allergic reaction

DBS. Did it improve your life as much as you hoped?
Well I feel the DBS conveyor belt moving again, bringing me closer to the surgery date. I have an appointment with Professor Silverdale in a couple of weeks and I have questions to ask. Can anyone reading this who has had the surgery give me their honest thoughts as to whether the DBS surgery has improved

Methotrexate
Hi, I have been on Prednisolone for the past two years for PMR and after various flares, ups and downs, am currently tapering and am at 9.5 mg daily, decreasing 0.5 mg every two weeks. At a routine drug review at the surgery this week the pharmacist said she was surprised I had not been put on Methotrexate

Varicocele surgery or continue with IVF?
My partner (32M) and I (32F) are supposed to be starting IVF in 4 weeks. We're in the UK and this will be our only NHS funded round, after this we'd have to self-fund. However, this morning he was told he has a grade 2 bilateral varicocele. This is really frustrating because this is the second test

Getting my life back
I wrote awhile ago that I was scheduled for a Wolf Mini-maze procedure at the DeBakey Houston Heart Center. I suffered through a year of blood thinners first. I am now 3 weeks out since my surgery. Dr Wolf did his magic on my heart and put in an LAA Atriclip so I am now free from blood thinners and

diverticulitis incontinence
Diverticulitis hot of nowhere. I fell down the stairs, was life flighted to UH main Campus, and had multiple Harkin’s procedures. Gutted thrice, like a catfish. I’ll be with ostomy for rest of my life. It’s been 40 days. Weak as a kitten I’m just in to rehab but still draining. They equipped me

3 weeks post CABG surgery
Looking for a bit of reassurance… My dad had a triple heart bypass 3 weeks ago, all went well apart from starting with a chest infection whilst in ICU. He was given IV antibiotics then oral antibiotics and was discharged after 5 days. He’s been home just over 2 weeks now and has been to the GP and his

Hello, I was wondering how to tell if you need b12 injections when you take oral b12 and your serum b12 always comes out looking great? I haven't had it tested recently but past tests always come out way over the range. Anyway, I saw a post by @Marz in which she said that she takes b12 due to having
