Reoccurrence of endo
hi! I’m just looking for a bit of advice regarding what to do if you believe the endo has returned. Some background, I’ve had 2 laparoscopies and removal of endo, the first in 2021 and the second was November last year. However I feel like my pain is worsening again and it’s becoming more and more

The Differential Diagnosis of Discrepant Thyroid Function Tests: Insistent Pitfalls & Updated Flow-Chart Based on a Long-Standing Experience
We often see members posting results which, at least initially, are odd and maybe make little sense. This paper recognises and discusses such test results. Quite long and takes some effort to read - but worth it if you are interested. [i]

My story- thanks for listening, understanding & caring
Hi everyone- I haven't written for a long time but feel the need to do so today. 4 years ago on 14/4/2020 my life changed forever as I was diagnosed with GCA. I hadn't been feeling well for some time and despite repeated trips to the GP with the symptoms I now understand constitute GCA, was not diagnosed

John Radcliffe waiting times for surgery
Hi. I’m waiting for heart surgery valve repair (hopefully) at Oxford Radcliffe. Been waiting 4 months. No idea of when they will get round to me. Get very vague responses. Anyone else on a list at the JR waiting longer than this? Thanks

Anxious over Gyno call
Following my previous post, I have large endometrioma cysts on both sides and my ca 125 test came back sky high so my doctor did the 2 week urgent referral for gyno cancer to the hospital last week - she did say the ca 125 is likely because of the endometriosis but they have to refer to rule other stuff

Loosing hope
Hi everyone - sorry, this is a long one! Grab a brew… Our first IVF round failed in February and we didn’t get any in the freezer. My OH’s semen analysis was really positive, so the focus has been on me with my low AMH levels, previous ovarian surgery and age (38). We only got 2 eggs, both fertilised

... And the beat goes on
12 months ago today I woke up in unfamiliar surroundings, a hospital bed. The day had arrived, I was having bypass surgery. In all honesty I can't say I was nervous the only thought in my mind was the ultrasound I was having on my legs, the surgeon was concerned about the viability of my legs veins,

coil advice
hi there I have hormonal migraines, which are worsening as I go through peri menopause. I am hoping that the mirena coil could help by possibly reducing or stopping my periods (when my headaches are at their worst) One attempt to insert the coil at my GP surgery was traumatic and unsuccessful. I hoped
