GP appt on Friday - what to ask?
Hi, following my post a few weeks ago, I have more test results and a follow-up appt on Friday with the lead GP. As mentioned, I've been offered anti-depressants more times than I can remember over the last 20 months since multi-nodular goitre was identified. I've gone on HRT to rule peri-menopause

Advice welcome PMR
After bing diagnosed with PMR in September 2021 I was started on Presdone 15mg. Tapered down slowly to 1mg. Then I started to get terrible pain in my thighs then the shoulder pain started again. I thought the pain in my thighs is due to having severe arthritis in my hip and waiting a hip replacement.

Hello from a newbie
I'm new on here, having been diagnosed with bicuspid aortic stenosis. My consultant has told me I'm now ready for a valve replacement. I'd like to chat to others who have had an aortic valve replacement.

ELEVATED LABS AFTER SURGERY
I was diagnosed with MBC in the liver in March of 2019 and have been on Faslodex only since that time with stable scans and lab work. I fell 10/1 and fractured my femur near the hip. On 10/2 I had a partial left hip replacement. I missed my October oncology appointment and Faslodex shots. I saw the doctor

A long post - How medication was ruining my life, not making me better! Reassurance for anyone concerned about stopping medication.
Hi ladies. A very Happy New Year to you all! I am hoping that 2023 treats you all with improved health and a wealth of happiness. I have seen a lot of posts recently appearing on my feed regarding treatments and hormones, and so I just wanted to share my recent experience of stopping all treatments.

running after hip replacement - contd
I wrote a few days ago about my first post-op run. I had waited ten months but was reluctant to go back to square one so had started on week four. It went OK but the consensus seemed to be I should go back a bit. Setting off for run two I looked at the plans for earlier weeks but both mind and body rebelled

How soon after stopping Zoladex, prostap etc did you get your period ? And how soon after stopping did you stop using HRT?
Hi, How soon after coming off injection can I expect to get a period? Also wondering at what point did you stop HRT ?

Heavy feeling after radical hysterectomy
I had a total hysterectomy four weeks ago and my vagina now feels heavy. Dragging feeling. I’m worried it has prolapsed. Or is it too soon to tell. Does recovery and scar tissue feel heavy? Should I be worried. My follow up appointment isn’t for another three weeks. Has my vagina fallen? How do I
