PSMA scans-any update?
Kinda describes my situation: after
surgery
and radiation PSA climbing. PSMA showed metastatic lymph nodes. Rather than watch and wait, they were radiated. PSA now seems to have dropped. Thanks. https://youtu.be/usXbPe_1YYc?si=cZB8L4YZ7y0w7qSJ

NHS negligence claim after ovarian cyst surgery
I am looking into making a claim for NHS negligence from a
surgery
I had in 2022 (I was told i have 3 years to make the claim) and I was wondering if anyone else has gone through the process? I know its stressful and long winded which is why i have put it off for so long.

Should I take pill after endometriosis surgery?
I'm wondering did it helped for anyone who had endometriosis
surgery
? I don't know at this point what to do,I'm really worried. I don't know if I should take anything or leave it just how it's.

Had diagnostic laparoscopy, poor discharge letter & post-op help
Is it normal to not have detailed notes post
surgery
and waiting for the follow up appointment? Also, I had my
surgery
Wednesday late afternoon and changed my dressings Friday night. When should I remove them? When do you stop wearing compression socks?

laparoscopy surgery
Hi, I had laparoscopy
surgery
earlier this week. I am terrified to be put asleep and all invasiveness of
surgery
. It was in all honesty fine, I just kept a clear mind.

asking for a friend (really) oncologist referral Chicago or Mayo Rochester
Had a call from someone diagnosed last week (Chicago) being pressured to have
surgery
immediately (Gleason 3 + 3). Two questions, at time of diagnosis prior to
surgery
, would you recommend consulting medical oncologist and radiation oncologist or other path?

A short update
The trainer there has noted that post
surgery
exertion guidelines don’t apply to me, I can do my own thing. And I’m working hard, it seems to be benefitting me too. Oh, my coordination and balance were way off after
surgery
but are now improving well.
