Reconstruction Expanders
In 10 days scheduled to have a mastectomy, lymph node, and expander put in. Is the expander very painful- have heard mixed things? I am very thin and small-breasted and putting a foreign object w/ a piece of metal under my chest muscle sounds horrible :( Thanks for any feedback

Vasectomy query
Hi. I'm a new member. Oh. Pardon the pun! I had a vasectomy in 2013 that at the time was apparently successful. I've recently tried to get my copy of the letter from my GP. However they haven't got it on file, does anyone know where a copy would be stored? I tried to contact the clinic I had the procedure

Post Vasectomy issues
vasectomy issues, reading the internet before the procedure I should not notice much difference after. 1) ejaculations are now watery. 2) Orgasm's have highly reduced in strength. Is this correct?

The Other Breast
Good morning Ladies, I’m in a bit of a “tizzy”. I had a right mastectomy in Oct because the cancer there was Her2 - and it was growing again after I stopped taxotere. I now have only 3 small her2+ places in my left lung that I’m about to have sbrt on one of them. I’ve been on herceptin and perjeta

How to Emotionally Prepare for Surgery
A few years ago, a friend preparing for her double mastectomy asked me, “𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗲𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗴𝗲𝗿𝘆?” This is a great question. Here are some things that helped me: 1. Take photos. You could schedule a photo shoot or have someone close to you take

Surgery with an auto immune disorder
Good morning all Some issues have come to light in my family recently which mean I may be eligible for a BRCA ( it’s the gene mutation which increases the risk of breast cancer amongst others) test. It seems to me that the worst possible outcome would be to agree to the test, be tested positive but then

RECENT EPISODE on 24 January 2020
Though I had experience of knocking sensation before but last Friday's episode was really dreadful after my dinner. On sitting I felt a pressure on mid-chest area, it was something like I have been locked from inside and can get relief if I have some belching. Noted the BP which was high 180/70 HR 78

Will the tight feeling ever get better?
Hi this is my first time posting.. I had a mastectomy last February.. two rounds of chemo before and 30 rounds of radiation after. My tumor was large and had attached to my arm muscle..My chest is dented and feels like a drum head stretched to tight.. I’m wondering if this feeling will ever go away..

Mastectomy or Not?
I have been troubled with just overthinking my Onc plan for my path going forward. I trust that she is making decisions with my best interest in mine, I google a lot and sometimes that can be a nightmare. To explain, I was slated to have my mastectomy on my left breast where the tumor is located. Just

Smaller pancreas than normal
Hi, my thoracic surgeon advised me yesterday that my pancreas is smaller than normal. I had total gastrectomy 6 months ago and I have been having some pain after eating. Does anyone know if I am not producing enough enzymes, causing issues to gain weight?

Treatment With Intramuscular Levothyroxine in Refractory Hypothyroidism
Given the regular appearance of patients who appear unable to tolerate levothyroxine, I thought this paper had the potential to be very interesting. And indeed the abstract is fascinating - as far as it goes. The full paper will be accessible in PubMed Central from 01/06/2020. [i]Eur Thyroid J, 8 (

Sotalol side effects
I've had both SVT and AF ablation's. The SVT was from just after I had my first child and was severe. The ablation for that took and I was put on Verapemil (sp?) I had no further SVT and all was well. Then after 30 years I began 11 years of hell that brought me here: total gastrectomy; followed 3 years

Post Vasectomy Pain, what physically needs to happen in the body for it to subside?
I've been diagnosed with post vasectomy pain syndrome 6 months on from my vasectomy surgery. The consultant believes that my Vas Deferens is swollen and under pressure as the sperm being produced now have nowhere to go and do not get absorbed into the body quick enough, causing back pressure and hence

Suprecur as trigger?
Following my consultation with the founder of my clinic, I'm going to be doing a combination of cycle 1 (long protocol) and cycle 2 (antagonist) meds for cycle 3. As I'm high risk of OHSS she said she might use suprecur as the trigger. Has anyone ever done this as I've only ever used ovitrelle before
