Stoma reversal
While I was waiting for my liver transplant I had an emergency
Stoma
surgery
and had a bag fitted, the surgeon that gave me my first check up for my liver said in about six months or so they will have me back in to reverse the Stoma.

PSMA Analysis needed
I'm awaiting the visual images from my PSMA FDG scan. In the meantime, I've got a written report and I could do with your help. The backdrop is that I'm hoping to be considered eligible for PSMA therapy in Melbourne in May-Aug. At the heart of it lies a really simple question (and apologies for my naivety

Graves Disease
Hi, I have type 2 diabetes, I was over-prescribed metformin which had its horrors. When I came off it I was quickly diagnosed with thyroxicosis and hypercalcemia. Saw the endocrinologist yesterday. |He sat there and said do you know what you have wrong with you, then he told me I had Graves disease

inflammation in eyes
I have an inflammatory eye condition either episcleritis or anterior uveitis. I’ve been on steroid drops for this which have given me cataract. On top of this inhave 2 stoma bags for a perforated bowel ( which triggered the eye inflammation). It’s been a horrendous time and I’ve become very down.

Stoma patient, mucus from anus
I’m seeing mucus from my anus, just this past week. I’ve had a bowel tumour that perforated in April 2023. I’m due my scan on 4th October. I have a stoma and no chemo ? I also have a hernia behind the stoma , awful pain from constant irritation on the skin surrounding the stoma? Some backache too?

Bowel endo surgery
So they have still not removed any nodules as they want the colorectal surgeons to supervise as i may need a
stoma
. So the next
surgery
will be my third operation. I am 28 right now and I am not in a relationship/not sure if i want kids (but would like the option).

grade 5 reflux with a neurogenic bladder
my son (now 8 months old) was diagnosed with a grade 5 reflux along with a neurogenic bladder post his mcu and cystoscopy which were performed when he was almost a month old, after a life threatening episode of sepsis.

Can I opt for a removal of colon stump?
Now that I have a colostomy, I actually love it! Two years ago, I had a rectal prolapse. Doctor removed about a foot of my colon and I was left incontinent. Then, it prolapsed again and was sent to another doctor who fixed the prolapse through laparoscopy. I was still incontinent. I actually had

Hi All, I was diagnosed with Stage 4 OC in May 2023 with the cancer migrated into my colon. I had been feeling unwell for 6 months and was assured by my doctor in February that it was acid reflux. This was despite my mentioning I have gynaecological issues in the family. The symptoms were bizarre
