Scan shows spreading despite chemo but surgery going ahead..confused 🤔
Hello alI I have stage 4 clear cell carcinoma, had a scan this week and got the results today. My gynae nurse said she could only tell me what was written on a scrap bit of paper which left me with more questions than answers (not impressed with this). I will call again next week but meantime wondered

Private surgery in North East
Hello, I had a ruptured cyst August 2023 while travelling abroad and got emergency surgery in a great hospital. They drained the cyst and while already in there diagnosed deep infiltrating endometriosis, but couldn't remove any of it right then, as none of it was planned. I come back to the UK, get

Omeprazole use
I am a long term user of Omeprazole along with a lot of other meds including aspirin. I had diarrhea at first but it did settle down. In the 80s I had serious ulcer issues resulting in major surgery and had Omeprazole been around then that would not of happened. Acid reflux can cause idiopathic pulmonary

Hi everyone, I’m fairly new to this group and was worried about posting but I’m feeling so lost. I am waiting on a diagnostic laparoscopy for potential endo. Pelvic pain started around a year and a half ago. I have had an internal ultrasound which only showed a small intramural fibroid but I was told

dad has advanced prostate cancer
my dad has had prostate cancer for a long time. He’s beeen on Lupron and xtandi and some other meds that gave him confusion. At this point he’s 83, it’s in a few ribs, hip (he had hip replacement a few years ago), clavicle, base of skull, spinal areas, spots on lung and liver. I think i covered it all

Holistic tips to alleviate pain
Hi, I would like to know if anyone has any holistic tips to help deal with endometriosis. I have just had an appointment with my gynaecologist, and they strongly recommend I have my second surgery in spring. However, I have asked if this could be delayed as im currently in my final year at university

Reoccurring pelvic pain
Has anyone had a tubo ovarian uterus abscess? I've had this for over a year and now it's causing issues with my bowels and bladder and it's interfering with work, worried about taking more time off. I've been hospitalised twice and put on iv drip. Had so many antibiotics this past year both by drip

Post ablation tubal sterilisation syndrome (PATTS)
Has anyone else had both of these surgeries and gone on to have excruciating pain? During my surgery they found endometriosis and I've since had an MRI and CT scan (as well as lots of useless ultrasounds that find nothing). I've been diagnosed with deep infiltrating endo on ovaries, peritoneum and bowel

Surgical removal of ovaries and fallopian tubes
Hi,I've just seen a consultant and due to have surgery to remove my ovaries and fallopian tubes. I'm nervous about the surgically induced Menopause this will bring about. Has anyone had this surgery, and if so, how were the symptoms afterwards? Thanks in advance for sharing.

potential OC?
Hello. I just wanted to see if anyone had any advice or has experienced anything similar. In October I had surgery to remove 2 large cysts in both of my ovaries and endometriosis/ adhesions in my pelvis. The dr then wanted to put me on the contraceptive pill to stop the pain I was getting with my period

MRI for Endometriosis - MRI machine process
Hi, it's not solely regarding Endo as such but more so the MRI side of things. I had an MRI with contrast yesterday - great experience (as far as medical and being injected goes) but I keep thinking about something more and more ... The scan started and the team then took me back out and said that metal

5mg for flair…..?
I’ve now been on 5mg for 4 days and I definitely am less stiff and the pain is not as bad in my legs and back … my question is… how long should I stay on this dose before considering to increase to 6 if it doesn’t continue to improve? I’ve given up trying to ask the gp .. it’s impossible to get through

Propranolol and Losartan upset stomach ?
Hi all, Further tales of my disasters with BP meds. Currently we are trying the above combination to try and lower BP but minimise side effects. Readings are not great but maybe acceptable however still suffering headaches and now have diarrhea. I have occasional IBS but usually this causes constipation

New diagnosis for Ascending Aortic Aneurysm help please
Hi, feeling a little deflated. Had my first annual surveillance CT scan with contrast in relation to the kidney cancer I had. I had a partial nephrectomy last Feb and all is well. No further indication of any spread. Thankfully it was a low grade small tumour but I am still considered high risk.When

Have you experience of Chemotherapy and underactive thyroid?
I have recently completed chemo following surgery for a bowel tumour. I was wondering if anyone has experience of chemotherapy and underactive thyroid? I have continued to take 75 T4 and 20 T3. It’s difficult to know if the fatigue / sleep problems are to do with the thyroid or chemo. many thanks.

Angry!
Hi there! I’m writing for support because I’m angry. I fell down the steps and broke my foot in December. I needed immediate surgery and have been recovering slowly, but surely. My sister called me to pick a fight and ended up telling me to go fall down stairs again and to break my other foot. She said
