Elbow Replacement Surgery P3 on Waiting List
Saw the elbow surgeon yesterday, he's putting me on the waiting list, category P3. Can someone explain what that means, categories were not mentioned when I had neurosurgery and hip replacements. Thanks.

RA complicated by arthritis in knees
Morning, so I have increasing pain in knees, worse on left. Diagnosed with Degenerate Oesteo-Arthritis in both knees, treatment for which is steroid injection, for time being, but ultimately will need knee replacement surgery. My question is, does anyone have tips to reduce pain & swelling & preserve

PD and orthopedic surgeries
I’m debating having a partial knee replacement (for patella femoral arthritis) AND/OR Morton’s neuroma surgery. I really need both, but am very concerned about not being able to exercise, the way I usually do, for at least a few months. Would it be wise to schedule both surgeries just a couple of

Asprin to prevent dvt
I am having knee replacement next week...We must take blood thnners after to prevent dvt and possible PE.. I get it..Blood thinner of choice is now asprin...tolerated and less side effects.. I am supposed to take the regular dose of 325 mgs BID for a month..I know ASA is not as risky as the the other

I don’t know what to do!!!
I wish I knew the right answer.. Today I had a follow-up with my orthopedic doctor it didn’t go to good. A little back story about two months ago I started seeing a new ortho doctor because I have been having pain in my right hip. I already had an MRI/ XRay done so I knew what was going on with the

Endoscopy was a bust.............
I got to the hospital fairly early for my apt. at 1.30pm and i was the second patient on the list. Dr lee came to see me and he was lovely. He has hinted that i might need a valve replacement as it is thickening quite a lot. I don't remember much about it as the sedation was working and afterwards

HELP, PLEASE??!!
I just had a total knee replacement. For 3 years now buprenorphine has helped, but today I took hydromorphone for pain that my surgeon prescribed, Nexium that my family doctor recommended to take to keep the aspirin I have to take postop to keep from getting ulcers, and cyclobenzaprine. Unfortunately

Can HRT stop working?
Hi, I had a total hysterectomy June 22 and have been on everol estrogen 100mg patches since and my menopause symptoms were controlled for the most. However, these past few weeks my symptoms have been creeping back starting with sleeplessness, night sweats, brain fog and now my skin is itchy as anything

prostrap injections
Hi All, thank you for the add- I am new here. I have ademomyosis, fibroids and also possibly endometriosis. I am listed for a total hysterectomy but start (thursday!) prostrap injections to see how I would cope with no ovaries (with add back HRT) and to check the effect on my terrible ovulation symptoms

surgery ready
So I’m on the countdown to my total hysterectomy on 5th October. Had the pre op tests and book of a tick box questionnaire. Feeling a bit weird, I know all the pain and bleeding and hospital visits will be over at last, and I know I need this surgery because without it I just won’t have a normal life

Covid
I started to have cold symptoms a week ago and took a test which was negative. Felt like the worse cold ever - terrible muscle aches, cough and congestion. After a couple of days I realised I couldn’t smell anything . My daughter who is a nurse said it sounds like Covid so I tested again and this

Min invasive Aortic valve replacement:- happy or disappointed?
I’m 67 yo, male, slightly overweight but otherwise good health but I have a severe Aortic Stenosis, that’s running at about 25% of full capacity. My only symptoms are slight breathlessness when climbing stairs. Saw a surgeon yesterday who wants to replace the valve with an animal valve, but he does not
