Movicol help (again!)
I have taken a sachet of Movicol every night for the past 7 years after a rectocele repair and hysterectomy. On top of the IBS I've suffered from for 30 years, the need to take Movicol is the bane of my life because it exacerbates the IBS symptoms. I've recently had to increase the Movicol to 1.5 sachets

estrogen therapy
I am an older woman in my late 70s. I have been on the estrogen patch for many years after a complete hysterectomy in 1987. I was diagnosed with CLL in 1998 after being monitored for high wbc for 4 years prior to the diagnosis. Due to enlarged under arm lymph nodes and wbc of 35000 I was treated after

Surgery with an MPN ...XXX
I just wanted to write this post to help reassure any of you that may need surgery. I've had other health problems for quite some time now, and really needed a hysterectomy...the gynae surgeons were wary, due to my extra weight and my PV diagnosis. I was told in May that they thought I was too complex

Incisional Hernia
Hi It has been two years since my Hysterectomy and I was told yesterday I have a Hernia from the operation. My oncologist said they wouldn’t do anything about it unless it started to cause me problem or interfering with the bowel. I have read that if you had a repair and then a reoccurrence where you

Negative SVT Ablation experience
Good Morning All, So I had my SVT Ablation on Thursday at St Thomas’. Not a great experience. Procedure took 3 and half hours. I was awake the whole time and conscious of everything! Four puncture wounds on groin. Two either side. I could feel the catheters going up into my veins and tweaking around

Scared of GnRH as symptoms include osteoporosis, alopecia and hot flashes. Endo and fibroid.
I've been diagnosed of fibroid, endo and dermoid cyst. Gyna suggested surgery but must take GnRH for 6 months pre surgery to avoid blood loss and eventually hysterectomy. I'm 29. GnRH side effects scares me - alopecia osteoporosis depression weight gain. I'm a very active person, an artist and marketing

Help with "sick day rules"
Hello, It's been a while. I am struggling and need some dose guidance please. My normal dose is 10mg per day. I delivered Mark to hospital on Sunday for a planned Total Knee Replacement which took place on Monday morning. He's doing very well, no pain (typical of him lol) and he was discharged yesterday

Overweight with a high BMI
I have stage 4 endometriosis and adenomyosis with bowel and bladder adhesions and cyst's on both ovaries.My consultant is really good, however he has specified that I need to get my BMI down to 35 or below before I'd be considered for a full hysterectomy (I've already waited over three years for one)

Test results
Hi I've just had a range of bloods done by my Gp as I'm feeling so tired and keep falling a sleep during the day. They all look OK apart from low end for calcium and my ggt liver one. Which could be because of antibiotics I'm permanently on for my cuti or my gallbladder which I'm waiting to be removed

Adenomyosis diagnosis
Hi everyone I was diagnosed with Adenomyosis last September after suddenly starting to flood during menstruation which I initially put down to being perimenopausal (late 40s). I was sent for an array of tests and advised to have the mirena coil inserted. I had the coil inserted and was diagnosed with

Hysterectomy
Hello. I hope you are having a peaceful Saturday. I wanted to ask for advice from any of you that have had, or have considered having, a hysterectomy for Endo. I am at the stage where we are considering this as my next move but there seems to be a lot of conflicting information out there. I am 35. Thank
