Going NHS/ Private consult after hysterectomy..advice needed
Hi all, In a nutshell...At age 36 I went in for surgey to remove a pesky fibroid that was bothering me for a some time. As there were complications during the surgery they had to go and remove my uterus to stop the bleeding, so it turned out into a hysterectomy. (tubes are also out, but still have

6 weeks post excision surgery and still can’t walk far.
Hi, I’m 42 years old and I had a laparoscopy with four incisions 6 weeks ago. The surgeon said endo was severe and excised it from all of my reproductive organs and from my bladder, pelvic ligaments and an artery. They also removed endo cysts from both ovaries. Apparently everything was stuck together

abdominal pain with PD catheter
Since having a PD catheter placed 4 months ago I keep getting episodes of lower abdominal pain. The pain is deep, intermittent, and sometimes severe enough that I have gone to the emergency room. But labs and scans find nothing wrong. I’m not doing dialysis yet, since GFR is sitting at 15. I am on a

I rang ahead to explain but when we arrived the consultant was shouting out my name. I told him I needed the loo first and turned

HRT after Endo and full Hysterectomy
Hi 2 years ago I had a full hysterectomy following having stage 4 endo which was everywhere but mainly 15cm chocolate cyst on my ovary and stuck to my bowel. Resulted in me having bowel surgery at the same time as my hysterectomy with a temporary stoma. I had a 3 weeks stay in hospital with complications

low lying placenta - 32 weeks
Hi, hoping to hear from others who have had/are having the same experience as me. I was told from 20 weeks that my placenta was low-lying, partially covering my cervix, and was at the front. I had another scan at 30 weeks which showed little movement - it is still partially covering my cervix. I am 32

Ferrous Fumerate and pre-existing Reflux
Any tips on how to take ferrous ferritin when you are already prone to reflux (for which I take a PPI)? My guts have just about put up with FF since December, and it has greatly improved my RLS, but increasingly given I take it at night it’s caused bad reflux and I had a massive flare recently during

Hysterectomy Consideration?
Hi all. I’m considering a hysterectomy, I’m 34 but have had all the babies I want to have and the pain and bleeding is worse than it’s ever been now. I’ve had three laps with removal, all by a very good endo specialist surgeon, chemical menopause, every contraceptive possible and tried diet changes

x - rays
hi - when I went first to my Rheumatology dept 4.5 years ago - I had a X-ray on my knee as I’d had a lot of pain and swelling there. I’d tripped up at work. No evidence of any damage was seen. over the intermittent years including lockdown I ve had worsening swelling and more present pain. More drugs

Back again more ranting
So I've been away from here for a while, I've been up since 3, I had a hysterectomy in march last year for the endo and they left my overies, which I think was stupid considering they said it was on one of them I was told, and I'm still experiencing pain a year on what more can they do?? I've been waiting
