Varicocele treatment - surgery or embolisation?
Hello all! So we're currently have ICSI due to unexplained infertility, with possible mild male factor due to borderline-low motility and morphology. My partner recently saw a urologist who has diagnosed a varicocele (big thanks to people on this forum for suggesting we check this out!). The urologist

Change in low grade diagnosis -to high grade ovarian carcino sarcoma?
I am 47 years old and am nearly 4 weeks post cyto-reductive
surgery
for stage 3C ovarian cancer - biopsy prior to
surgery
showed it was low grade serous ovarian cancer (lgsoc) and I had been getting my head round that diagnosis.

Cataract surgery with AMD
Am having cataract
surgery
on 23rd October in right eye first. I am short sighted and have agreed to have sight corrected at same time. I am now worried about wisdom of this as think it will highlight distortion in vision and will have to have reading glasses for the first time in my life.

CUT PRE-SURGERY - MURPHY'S LAW?
I was thinking they would postpone my
surgery
which is tomorrow morning. Immediately called surgical booking. Finally got the person to whom I was supposed to speak originally. She contacted the surgeon who said he was willing to still do the
surgery
, as long as it was not infected.

Facial palsy recovery
Hi all, I had my AN
surgery
in 2018 and after that I did physio for a while for the facial palsy. They also used to give me Botox injection on my chin to tighten it, but I had reaction due to Botox so they stopped.

dionogest: zalkya v’s dimitrum
I had excision
surgery
in April 23 and was prescribed zalkya instead of cerazette. It’s been difficult to get from pharmacies however the pharmacy gave me dimitrum this time and by the time I’d got home and noticed it was different they were closed for the holidays.

Prostate-as-"PCa Factory" - Reasons for Removal?
This was the thinking of my doctors who saved me from
surgery
and radiation - apparently there would be no upside with prostate removal in terms of suppressing cancer - and there would be a lot of downsides.

medication after open heart surgery
is there anyone on this site who has had a heart valve replacement and is now using biologic meds to control their ra? If so, I’d love to hear your experience. I was born with a bicuspid aortic valve which needed replacing in June (an event hastened by a toxic reaction to leflunomide). I’ve had an Inspiris

New blood results
Graves confirmed again 57 years after
surgery
for it. Endo said that there's nothing can be done to reduce the antibodies and since my bloods are in range come back in 6 months. Meanwhile, I feel unwell. Still getting palpitations and losing weight.

Recurrence after prostatectomy
I have a relative who had
surgery
6.5 years ago. Pathology was very favorable, 3+3+tertiary 4 i.e. less than 5%, no pos margins, no ECE, no nodes. He remained undetectable for 6.5 years, but now is .07 verified. What would SOC be for him?

Third week post op laparoscopy
I had a very long
surgery
and was in hospital for 3 nights. They have removed all of my endometriosis, including around my bowels.It is week 3 and my wounds are healing slowly. The surgical glue has not all come off yet. I was wondering when I can start washing my wounds?

"I Walked Out One Summer's Morning"
The title though refers when I walked out to a taxi in summer 2020 for day
surgery
. I felt rotten and it turned out I was developing sepsis. Instead of a day in hospital and an angioplasty it became three months and an amputation!
