Lowered CA125 and a nugget of hope 🙏
After 2 chemo sessions of carbo & taxol plus Avastin, my blood test level has reduced from 750 to 586 which is the first positive news I have received since diagnosis mid December 👏 it has given me a huge boost! My CT scan is Tuesday 20 Feb to see if my huge mass has shrunk enough for surgery, if so

Update after finding out I have Chiari Malformation
Good morning lovely people, I hope you are all doing well? You were so supportive and kind to me when I last posted about finding out I had Chiari Malformation and didn’t have PMR. So, I thought I’d update on what has been going on since then. I went back to my GP and he has been so supportive and

Another Nebuliser question
Hi - I've been watching tthe discussions about nebulisers. For some time I have thought one might be helpful (COPD severe). My COPD team were fairly unhelpful but the respiritory nurse at my GP surgery as just prescribed some Salbutamol nebules. She is now away on holiday. I have bought myself a portable

Suggestion
Hello. I have MS for over 20 years. Medication has helped my symptoms. I recently fell and broke my left forearm. Had surgery and therapy. I feel awkward depending on people who want to help. This too shall pass but need to keep myself busy. I am unable to drive until my occupational therapist tells

MRI scan vs Transvaginal ultrasound
Hello, Hope everyone is doing well. I was diagnosed with deep invasive endometriosis in 2023 last year and I had a MRI scan done which showed that I had deep endometriosis at two places that was affecting my bowel, bladder and uterine fold. The solution given to me was having a surgery to resolve this

Major surgery and a Vasovagal event
I’ve been taking 5mg pred for a while. Reduced to 4.5 and after a few weeks began to feel unwell. I told my doctor who said go back on to 5mg. I then went into hospital last week. I had gluteal reconstructive surgery. The anaesthetist suggested I should increase my pred. So I did the sick day rule and

Surgery Today!
I’m having spinal surgery today in my neck. So glad it’s finally happening but rather nervous too. I have cervical stenosis and myelopathy so I’m hoping this operation will stop the progression of spinal cord damage 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻. Has anyone else had this happen. Not sure if it’s RA related or not.

Test results
Hi everyone, I've received the following test results and have been advised to take statins. Do you think these results look like I could get my levels down with diet and exercise? My surgery obviously doesn't think so... Many thanks

medication swap
received text from my bp surgery to say my omeprazole has been stopped and I’ve been switched to lanzoprazole instead ? No idea why ? Maybe cost . Has this happened to anyone else ? Plus I’m now 5 weeks post stent and haven’t received cardiology follow up . Should I get this or is that it ? You just

Small hernia
I have Stage 3 low grade ovarian cancer and had debulking surgery 18 months ago. I got over the surgery very quickly and have been very lucky with no recurrence so far. Yesterday I saw my Oncologist who said she had found a small hernia but I should carry on as normal but avoid heavy lifting. I’m

cataract surgery and prednisolone dose
This morning I had my eyes tested. This time last year I was told I had the beginnings of a cataract in my left eye, due to prednisolone. Today I was told that, thanks to prednisolone, the cataract is now ready for surgery. I said I didn't want it yet, because I am trying to get my prednisolone dose

Post heart attack
Hello again, I posted on here a few months back regarding my husbands palpitations. Things have moved on a bit since then , he has been having random chest pain and saw the doctor, he reassured him that the pain was most likely muscle strain … not sure about that . He had recent blood tests as he is
