After ADT
My 72 year old husband had radical, robotic
surgery
7 years ago. PSAs were 0 until 2 years ago, then barely detectable. Had the special PET scan, 3 spots lit up in lymph nodes, (in the area, none remote.) Had 6.5 weeks radiation therapy. Had 2 years of Lupron/Zytiga/steroid.

Completely ineffective for me and it took a bout of covid in new year to seriously infect my chest and lungs , I had to go to our local pop in
surgery
where the nurse immediately re-instated the ventolin with a letter to my gp to that effect . My improvement was incredible .

could anyone please help interpret my results as I have not been back to see the specialist since MRI scan, and let me know what it means in English and what kind of recovery time I am realistically looking at from the
surgery
?

Diagnosed, anxious & waiting for gyno
Something about my bowel not sitting right with others… I haven’t really been told much else other than
surgery
is most likely treatment.

Nasal Polyps
I had
surgery
to remove nasal polyps about 7 years ago and afterwards was told to use a nasal spray Fluticasone to help me from having anymore. So far so good but lately my pharmacy has had a problem of obtaining Fluticasone therefore my GP has suggested Beclomethasone instead.

Endo diagnosis
Should I go ahead with
surgery
for a diagnosis? If I choose not to have
surgery
and I do have endometriosis, am I at risk to any harm? I know some of you have waited several years for a diagnosis, how did being diagnosed help you? Looking back what would you have change?

1 week after circumcision
I am 29, and had circumcision
surgery
1 week ago. I have been super sensitive down there but what bothers me a lot is the stitches. They are black and on the one side they feel very tight and some stitches are sticking out and it feels like they are stabbing me.

Workplace Accommodations
Hi all - my endo has caused me a few abscesses from work since my
surgery
. I’m lucky that my work are so understanding with it and they want to help me manage as best I can. I am due to have a meeting next week to see how they can help and what if any accommodations they can put in place for me.
