Surgery?

She’s had a cancellation in February but I’m worried the surgery could cause more scar tissue. Thanks

Cancelled surgery

I agreed to the diamox being increased, knowing it was short term, with a date for surgery early June. Alongside this I have cataracts in both eyes and my vision has become mega blurry as a consequence. Given the risk factors I was told I was on the priority list for surgery.

No Surgery

Has anyone considered having no surgery especially if you are older. I'm 82. Five weeks of radiation did not help and I am on with and see for 2 months but probably surgery will be recommended.

Post Surgery

Posted for the first time over a month ago and recently had trab surgery on my left eye Tues 26th. Surgery was not the most pleasant of experiences but necessary and the pressure was down to 8 the next day from a high of 38 so good news so far.

surgery query

I am waiting for my cataracts to be done under GA because I have very serious back problems and cannot lie comfortably on my back or keep still. I am concerned because I have had AF for several years, does. I am also very scared, and wonder if anyone has been in this situation. Thanks Paul

Impending surgery

I know I have to stop my Apixaban 48 hours before surgery. Just this silly niggle about undergoing a general anaesthetic now I’m on diltiazem, flecainide, gabapentin, atorvostatin and other analgesics. I know everything will be alright but it just seems a lot going on there.

Microshunt Surgery

I’m now being told I need urgent Microshunt surgery on the good eye at Moorfields. Has anyone had this surgery as I am worried by the comments I have read on various forums?

Cancelled surgery

I have no idea how we could have got it and can't believe I got it the weekend of my surgery. Those that have had cancelled surgery how have you pulled your head back round?

Surgery

Hello lovely ladies, After 5 rounds of chemo, my stage 3c primary peritoneal cancer is finally deemed operable and I'm scheduled for debulking op this Wednesday 19th. I'm told there is very little disease left (although - I don't know if anyone else felt like this - I have trouble believing them) Fingers

Surgery Risks?

Hi everyone. Just joined this site yesterday after a recent UCTD diagnosis. Last year, before my diagnosis, I was referred for gallbladder removal. This week, I received a telephone consultation appointment for May. I will ask any relevant questions during the consultation but was wondering meantime

Hip surgery

Am really scared....I need the surgery as I now have a leg length discrepancy and need to walk with a cane. Difficult to walk or to excercise and feel that at this point I have no real quality of life. I do need this surgery.

Cancelled surgery

I was due to have my second surgery on the 4th March, I arrived to be told it was cancelled because the surgeon didn’t work on Fridays. I was then told it was because my ecg was abnormal, I went to see a private cardiologist and my ecg was normal.

Big surgery

I was told it will be a big surgery with risks. This is by a top neurosurgeon. How do Ideal with this. I’m just falling to pieces. I’m 64 so not young and not particularly fit. I can’t tell my family what was said because then I will be worrying about them.

Back surgery

Hi my doctor said I need a laminectomy and fusion. I have spinal stenosis and L4 L5 discs need fusion. Has anyone had these surgeries? Any advice on how long recovery is would be much appreciated. Thanks

Endo surgery

I had laparoscopic surgery remove my endometriosis in December 2020. I’ve noticed over the past 8 months that my symptoms are getting bad again and seem to be worse than before my surgery.

Endo surgery?

I don’t want to go through this radical surgery if it’s not going to improve the pain. Is it best just to have the endo treated via surgery first then see how it goes before full hysterectomy? Anyone had this treatment done? Advise would be welcome.
