Cardiac surgery meds bring PSA down?
On January 31st I had successful open-heart
surgery
to repair a heart valve. On March 7th, my next blood test, my PSA had dropped to .5. Has anyone here heard that this sort of drop after
surgery
is normal? Perhaps there are meds used at that time that could be of assistance to some of us.

Open heart surgery
We discussed my AF , the effects of
surgery
on episodes after and anticoagulants . Interestingly they stated that oral anticoagulants reduce the risk of stroke by 60/70% on average for those with AF . Additional to my valve being replaced they will exclude the Left Atrial Appendage using a clip .

Hi, Looking for some reassurance from those of you who have had laparosopy excision
surgery
. I am 11 days post op and i am struggling mentally and a little physically. At first the worst of it was the gas pains, however from the day after
surgery
I have been able to get up and walk around.

treatment without surgery
It’s my mum that has ovarian cancer stage 4, had 6 rounds of chemo then
surgery
- however the surgeon couldn’t operate as there was too much cancer to remove. My question is, has anyone had the same happen to them and have you been able to carry on with treatment? Thanks Hollie

Is It worth choosing a Doctor?
My neighbour has given me the name and contact information for a doctor he said is the best in my area for knee replacement
surgery
and said once I get a date for my
surgery
I can request that it is done by this doctor.

Stuck at 4.5mg
Saw hip surgeon in January who told me to stay on 4.5mg rather than risk a flare before my
surgery
for hip replacement which took place in March.

Two weeks post surgery now
Two weeks post
surgery
now and I still can’t help feeling how different this is from my previous two. I’ve called the hospital twice regarding ‘complications’ (or so I think but they don’t).

Pacemaker surgery
Hello everyone I am likely to be having a pacemaker fitting soon and the idea of the
surgery
is really freaking me out. I think it's because it's done under local anaesthetic and so I'll see them doing it. For people that have had the
surgery
, how was it and how did you feel afterwards?

Open heart surgery for ASD CLOSE
To everyone who has given me advice, I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude for all the guidance and support you’ve offered since my open-heart
surgery
in April 2014 for ASD closure.

Rang gp surgery 🤦♀️
So after my last posts about the gp prescribing me a antihistamine which I have recived today...( Fexofenadine Hydrochloride) I assume the gp wants me to take this antihistamine with my thyroid medication 🤔 although she never actually said this🤷♀️.Maby she's thinks the antihistamine will help me stomach

Partial thyroidectomy
Are there any alternatives to
surgery
? 4. Are the symptoms likely to improve with
surgery
? 5. Can my remaining half a thyroid compensate for the tissue loss? 6. Any other advice or experience would be gratefully received 🙏

T3/T4 HRT Meds before surgery?
My question is- I've never had quite such a major
surgery
and was wondering if i should continue my meds the same on the actual morning of it happening?
