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.

High Cholesterol
My wife’s GP
surgery
is now advising statins for a cholesterol reading which in Canada and most of Europe would be deemed normal. In Canada anything below 5.2 is normal and between 5.2 and 6.2 the reading is deemed to be borderline. Readings of >6.2 are deemed to be high.

This thread needs to be sent to the Minister for Health
Factor in the inputs by
surgery
staff (all over the place in my case - one week I could order both Nebivolol and Amiodarone) plus its reliance on expensive technology, its certain to be detrimental to the healthcare of large groups of people.

I stopped Prostap, started the mini pill but I keep bleeding.
Tethered to my bowl, colon and bladder and i am now awaiting
surgery
. I'm just wondering if anyone else has had issues with bleeding after coming off Prostap? I had the Prostap injection for one month, alongside Tibolone. It really affected me and so I decided not to continue.

Low heart rate
My husband would like to speak to a cardiologist but he’s never been under the U.K. system as he was living in Canada at the time of
surgery
. Can anyone recommend the best way forward? Sorry for the lengthy post.

mom has been intubated for 2 weeks almost
She had emergency
surgery
a week ago and after that her pupils were unequal. They did a CT and it came back negative of any issues. They have turned off sedation for a day at a time but then have to start fentanyl back up for some reason of sorts.

Does Gleason score still apply after RP
It was confirmed 3+3 after
surgery
. One open margin of less than 1mm. No sign of spreading anywhere locally or distant. My psa was in the .02-.03 range bouncing up and down for 8 years. Last visit 4 months ago it went to .05 which scared me.

Should one asymptomatic and isolated AF episode be medicated?
At my pre op assessment (for hip
surgery
) last Monday the ECG showed AF. No symptoms at all, I walk my dogs +/- 4 miles daily. My BP machine shows normal resting heart rate and BP. So on strength of one ECG my GP has prescribed anticoagulant tabs which I know is for the AF risk of clotting.
