Living Hell
I first experienced RLS about 1982. I had no idea what was wrong with me so I just put it down to some sort of allergy. As the attacks were quite intermittent, I didn't seek any help at the time. After about a year though. The frequency and severity of the attacks increased manyfold and was now causing

My story
Hi All. Just wanted to put my story out there. I had a routine MRI scan a few weeks ago as I have bulging discs in my back and to my surprise 3 days later my GP called to say that my scan had picked up 'a large mass on my left ovary'. This literally shook me as it was completely out of the blue. The

Uvetis and Glaucoma and detached retinas
Hi, wondering what treatment people are having if they have uveitis and secondary glaucoma as result of this? I'm asthmatic so only one type of drop is suitable for me. Can't have drugs or SLT to bring pressure down. I heard GATT had successful outcomes but not sure if available outside of Birmingham

Private Endo Surgery
Hi everyone, For those of you who have had surgery for endo treated privately can you share what I can expect at my inital consultation, what next steps were? I have preemptively sent my most recent MRI/Ultrasound and medical history. Was an examination carried out at first consult? I’ve realised today

Hubbys assessment and now me. (Menopause and liver???)
So hubby had his second assessment ant the beginning of May and it went ok. As I thought might be the case they have given him another month to build him up and get him strong before they make the final decision. I can see that he wouldn’t cope with surgery at the mo so we are ok with the results.

Tears of despair
For the first time my Wife and I sobbed in despair this morning after one of my worst nights yet since withdrawing from Ropinirole.

Disappointed
After Lupron, NUBEQA and Zytega … and a recent FDG Cat scan Several nodes lit up in the periodonal aorta area of his abdomen. Being totally right up against the aorta, a decision was made to remove them robotically. Surgery went well. All lymph’s were removed that lit up on the scan. docs felt PSA

Blood in urine
Hi all. This is my first post here. I had a robotic radical prostatectomy three months ago. In the first few weeks after surgery, my urine was clear, but then I started showing blood on my pads during walks. This has continued ever since and I'm now at 12 weeks after surgery. These are pink spots, not

What next?
Had my MRI two weeks ago, today I received a letter from a consultant sending me for an AMH test. All it said was ' 31F with endometriosis and large bilateral endometriomas please test prior to surgical planning'. It didn't say anything else but I noticed it was requested from a new name. Did some research

Transplant - it finally happened!
Hello,For those of you who have been following my husbands journey.....it finally happened. The operation was thru the night, 1am until 10.40am. There was and has been complications but as we know, complications are mostly expected at some point with these big surgeries. He took longer than expected

5 weeks post Circumcision update
Recovery is slow and swelling is still present, specifically on the underside of the glans just below the Frenulum which tbh looks ugly. Every 3-5 days dry skin just hangs and crystallizes with the secretions and urine (leftover) which I have to painfully pull apart after softening it for quite a period

Odd collection of symptoms that last 1-4 days
I'll try to be brief. For many years I have from time to time had episodes at varying intervals and for varying lengths of time, of debilitating fatigue ( have to lie down to get relief) accompanied by some or all of the following:-Nausea, abdominal discomfort, lack of appetite, various chest pains,

Active b12 versus serum b12
My Medichecks active b12 is 63.1 (range is 37.5-188) but my serum b12 tested at my gp surgery shows top of range. Should I supplement? I also have hypothyroidism. Thank you

Serum b12 V Active b12
I’ve just received my active b12 result from Medichecks. It was 63.1 yet my recent serum b12 from my GP surgery was over the top of the range. Over the years I have always had top of range serum levels . Should I supplement with vitamin b12? Thank you

Hypocellular bone marrow. Can anyone tell me more?
I was diagnosed with B12 deficiency ("low serum B12") over 15 years ago when debilitating exhaustion was putting my job at risk. Doctors assumed diet related because I was usually vegan at home but still ate meat and fish two or three times a week. I am diary intolerant with eczema (but crave custard
