Troublesome ITP since 9 years. Past 6 months platelets has finally been stable, treated with Revolade (Eltrombopag) 25 mg and low dose Prednisolone.

Help please
I had endo surgery in 2016 after 10 years of pushing for a diagnosis. I was found to have extensive scaring at the front (across section scar) and endo going into my bowel. I've had urinary symptoms for years, although they've never looked into this. I was told I had DIE.After surgery I fell pregnant

advice please!
I was wondering if anyone have any advice/ experience they can share with me please. After years of suffering, I finally had an ultrasound in September on the NHS. When I got there, they told me my bladder was not adequately filled (my own fault!) but they said everything they could see looked normal

Buprenorphine tablet's refused....why ?
I have, yet another, short story! I had spoken to the Pain Clinic Specialist Nurse about changing from the Buprenorphine patch to tablet's and she agreed to write to my Dr. and ask him to change over because I am having a reaction to the gum on the patch and the itch is driving me nuts! I have been

Compressions
HelloI am 9 weeks post TKR in right knee and I think I might have a problem with my Compressions. I have lower leg Lymphoedema and my left leg was always worst for swelling. Since my knee surgery, my right leg is swelling more. Obviously, this would be partly due to the surgery but when I wear my compression

Prostectamy
I'm 5 weeks post op following my successful prostectamy. I've recovered very well. Incontinence almost gone, just a few drops now and then. I've been taking Cialis 5mg every day since surgery. No matter how I try, I just can't get any type of erection, or have a dry orgasm. It even hurts my penis

Ablation
Hi All, I am wondering if anyone has gone the ablation route with non small cell lung cancer? I had cyberknife in my lower right lung back in 2011. It was effective with minimal side effects. In 2020, the cancer came back in my upper left lung. Now in 2024, it is back in my upper right lung. Apparently

patch
Hiya, I wondered if anyone with a mirena coil has ended up using the patch too? If so, how are you finding it? Iāve been recommended it for stage 4 endo, surgery is 2+ years waiting list. I donāt react too well to hormones, but Iām at a point where it canāt be worse. Iāve also seen posts about dienogest

Cognitive skills
I had open heart surgery over four months ago. Straight after the surgery I felt fine and could hold a conversation with people. The week after (once home) I felt I was present in the room but struggled to communicate. I would have the conversation mapped out in my head along with what I wanted to

Severe hepatic steatosis
HiMy CT scan says liver has smooth contour, 'severe hepatic steatosis', no focal liver lesion or biliary dilatation. I phoned the helpline and was recommended to ask for fib 4 test but my gp says they don't do that. Just had normal full bloods and liver panel taken. Waiting for the results but I fear
