I stopped Prostap, started the mini pill but I keep bleeding.
Hi,I'm stage 4 endometriosis, with 3 cysts measuring around 18x18x18cm in total. Tethered to my bowl, colon and bladder and i am now awaiting surgery. I'm just wondering if anyone else has had issues with bleeding after coming off Prostap? I had the Prostap injection for one month, alongside Tibolone

Contact lenses after Paul implant
Hello all, Just wanted to ask about your experience with contact lenses after Paul implant (or any alternative drainage device). How soon were you able to resume wearing your lenses after the surgery? Did you encounter any complications? Did you have had to switch from soft to rigid contact lenses

Hi Everyone, My husband had a major STEMI in March 2023 with a full blockage of his circumflex artery. He was 44 years old and playing 5-a-side football in a local sports centre when he collapsed without warning. Thank goodness it happened there of all places however, as the swift actions of his team

Hi - This is my first post - I was only recently diagnosed with scleroderma after what feels like an eternity of basically figuring out and chasing most of it myself. I had no medical issues at all 2 years ago and then bang - I feel like I've turned into some kind of mad hypochondriac. The frustration

Hello, I'm 71 and had a fall about 8 weeks ago. I thought it was just a sprain but a blood clot developed in my leg and I was put on Apixaban. My foot, around the big toe area and bunion was sore and swollen and I had a lot of difficulty walking. After about a month I went to see my GP who took a look

Periods after surgery
Hi ladies, I had surgery in September to remove chocolate cysts and endo tissue but for various reasons they didn’t remove all the endo. Before my surgery, my periods were regular – every for weeks. But afterwards the surgeon wanted to stop them to help with the endo and try to prevent future cysts

Anesthetist appointment

How long after a appointment with the anesthetist did people get booked for surgery or have surgery? I'm anxious I've

Another disappointing appointment with a consultant... MRI refused
I had my follow up appointment today after my laparoscopy last month where no endo was found but severe adhesions. The appointment today was to discuss the findings and further surgery. It wasn't even the guy I was supposed to see. My request for an MRI was flat out refused. And my adhesions once again

Hi All- a couple of weeks ago, I posted on here for the first time on behalf of my husband. Everyone was very reassuring and helpful. It turned out that my husband still had a 'collection' in his lower bowel which had become infected and the hospital put him on a course of antibiotics. He is now

Tumeric/circumin
Good morning to you all. I wonder if anyone can help with my query. I saw professor Harrison two weeks ago and among things discussed was joint and bone pain. I'm on hydroxy with one 75mg aspirin per day. She mentioned tumeric/circumin that some people find it very helpful and I asked if it was OK

For people who are about to have a bypass..
Where my health is concerned I was terrified of surgery . A neurotic coward . However I had such incredible people at Southampton Hospital who helped and guided me through the whole procedure I can honestly say I was not afraid .

Laparoscopy - when do you know if it's worked? Will I have pain free days in my recovery? I'm 6 weeks after Op.
My story is quite long, so I will try to keep it brief.For 2 years I have had chronic pelvic pain after doing various tests that all came back clear I was offered a diagnostic laparoscopy. After 19 months of waiting I had the surgery 6 weeks ago. I woke up and after being told there was nothing wrong
