Trouble emptying bladder
I'm waiting for
surgery
for laparoscopy for stage 4 endometriosis found on my ovaries, uterus and bowels. I've been really lucky that I don't get really bad symptoms and most of the time I can manage the pain. I sometimes get painful periods but with medicine it can be okay most of the time.

Buprenorphine good news stories or not
Some RLS patients will still move and raise their legs during
surgery
and this is what he uses to stop them and he was prescribing for friends and family that suffer this vile disease.

Heart Bypass Surgery
Hi All, I out of absolutely nowhere got told I had had a Heart Attack following what I thought would be a routine blood test and a day that started 5weeks ago to meet my friend in the pub for the usual Quiz night ended with me being told I had quite severe CAD and required an urgent triple CABG. Here

I brought home my dog domino following acl
surgery
and am overwhelmed about his rehab routine. Massage, ice, meds, trips to vet daily for laser therapy, etc. for at least 8 weeks. Has anyone else been through this and have any coping skills to suggest?

nexplanon implant removal
hi ladies, I’ve bled constantly since having my excision
surgery
in October. Been to my specialist who recommended that I have my implant out and reset my body completely then see about another form of contraceptive control in 3-6 months. Just had my implant removed today.

hysteroscopy or not?
I have never had any infection or
surgery
that would cause scarring, and as I am 43 and was on the pill for 20 years I think my lining likely is what it is and a hysteroscopy won’t find anything. I feel it’s just needlessly delaying my treatment which I’m desperate to start.

Low TSH
In 2009 I had
surgery
to create what is called a J pouch, which is made from approximately the last 40cm of terminal ileum. Current issues. Recent blood tests, ordered by my colorectal surgeon/consultant, show l have low TSH (0.06) and normal T4.

confused about treatment options
I’m feeling pressured into
surgery
- they’re using terms like “a potential cure,” which raises irrational hopes. But then they’ll probably have to do radiation anyway. I’m terrified about side effects (especially incontinence) associated with
surgery
. It come down to quality of life questions.

Bad dumping incident?
I’m over 5 months from three way Oesophageal
Surgery
. I was doing really well with eating and fitness levels. Then last Friday (after a Chinese takeaway which didn’t consist of more than some noodles and a bit of chicken) I became ill about 2 hours later.

A quick update for those that remember my recent posts about the Ablation complications!
Ablation 16/3, artery got damaged, 3 outpatient appointments, 2 failed attempts at thrombin infusion under ultrasound, emergency 3 day admission to hospital with emergency pseudoaneurysm and arteriovenous fistula repair (pretty major
surgery
involving patching the damaged artery with cow veins) .

Heart appointment today and after being blocked from this site it seems i have access to it again.
I am not worried about it as i just want this
surgery
done and dusted so i can get my life back. I have had a bad nights sleep and i am now tired so i will try and get some sleep before i go to the hospital. The next decision i have to make is what to wear when we go out.

Tocilizumab and heartburn
I’m finally back on Tocilizumab after an ankle replacement, 2 bouts of C-diff, a chest infection and minor
surgery
for an ingrowing toenail. It’s been a bad 3 months and my RA has been flaring the whole time with little I could take other than paracetamol.

Home Ambulatory BP Recording Advice
I am currently on 2 meds and always have higher BP in
surgery
(white coat syndrome or just more stressed). I was advised to take 2 readings for each 1 min apart and record the lowest and then average the 6 readings each day. My recordings seem to fluctuate massively.

I helped a long term sufferer today
Funnily enough she is registered with the same GP
Surgery
as me. Anyway she was complaining that she was always so tired and achy etc and I asked what dosage she was on and she replied 75mcg (which I thought a little low) and I told her she was most likely undermedicated.
