Very newly diagnosed PBC still undergoing testing
Hello all! I'm a 59 year old female living in the Florida Panhandle Haven't had any serious issues of note, arthritis and joint replacements aside. I began with an overall itch in Sept of 2021 and didn't worry too much until about a week later, when I was sleep deprived and torn up from scratching,

neuropathy flare after operation
Struggling with flare up of burning legs and feet plus all my sjogrens symptoms after recent hip replacement. Wondering if this is normal and how long it might last.

Latest appointment update…..ET investigation
Further to my previous post from yesterday I just thought I’d update you all of the outcome from my Consultants telephone appointment today incase my info may be of use to others…. Due to ongoing high platelets (usually in 500’s) I am currently under investigation for ET. I have had numerous tests

Updates- 😱😤🤯🧐
Hi Feel like the only ones that will understand are people who are the same as me. I previously posted that I had been listed for surgery as a priority 2. So I saw two consultants this week and was told that I havent been listed at all. 🤯😵😤 However both the consultants I have seen were brilliant

prostap3 and tibolone
I’m currently on prostap3 and tibolone hrt. On 2nd injection about mid way through the 10 weeks and I’ve felt so bad this week constant hot flushes day and worse at night( far worse than have been), bad headaches, feeling sick. Insomnia ( although had this since been on them) feel like I’m at the end

Another useless Endo appointment - anti anxiety drugs are apparently the answer to chronic insomnia?!
Having waited a year for my follow up appointment, my t/con with the Endo was pointless. I have recently posted re 20 years of chronic insomnia, sorry I’m unsure how to tag that post. It included my blood test results. She claims waking at 1-2am is anxiety, and wants me to take anti anxiety drugs.

next steps
hi, I have recently been diagnosed with grade 4 endo. I was today told even surgery won’t help and even if choose it it’s an 18 month wait and major surgery. One of the medical options is the analogue injections, potentially with hrt. Can anyone offer me any advice or experience from their own journeys

Spending too much while depressed. Spoke with mental health professionals. They came up with HRT. If balancing me would cause me to spend less would be great but I don't think it will serriousluy help. Stepping back a little - ie not spending right away but waiting alittle was a very good suggestion

First BFN today 😢 - trying to decide on back to back or a break.
Although I was expecting the news, it was heartbreaking to hear the words "I'm sorry..." and have our suspicions confirmed that there was failed implantation.We are now faced with making a decision in quick time as our Dr has signed us off to start our next Frozen cycle as soon as I have the withdrawal

Pain and discomfort
Hi, does any one else suffer with joint pain and stiffness.Some times I feel that I cam barely walk.. it'd likes the joints and ligaments don't want to move. I cant work out what is thyroidal and what is age related. I am currently taking HRT.. and this helped for a little while but it was very short

Knee surgery and PD meds??
Today I am seeing a surgeon about my bad knee. I am concerned that I will have to stop my Madapor before surgery, as it says on the packet. Is this true? I cannot imagine going without it - just the thought of that makes me anxious.
