3 weeks after my hysterectomy
Hi All ☺️ Just wanted to post as a few have asked how I’m doing after my total hysterectomy, I know everyone’s experience will be different but for me it’s the best thing I’ve done. I’m still recovering but I have no pain 🥳 moving about going on short walks and just feeling better in myself. Adenomyosis

Dr Annice Mukherjee
Hello, If anyone has experience of this Dr please will you PM me? I’m looking for a private endo in NW England as being fobbed off by GP. Concerned I may have Hashimotos, already have low ferritin and high TIBC, coeliacs, flooding periods, fibrocystic breast disease, lactation though not pregnant, depression

Gall bladder removal
Hello I have an 8mm polyp in my gall bladder as wel as tiny gallstones. My latest ultrasound a few days ago noted that surgery could be an option soon. I have no symptoms but the polyp has to be removed. Has anyone had a laparoscopic surgery of this type and what was your experience?

Need help raising Iron
Hi all. I've taken a few tests in the past weeks and am at a loss over how slowly iron has been going up. First took an NHS test, which was taken at 11am on [u]18 Feb[/u]. I heard 10.15am on the phone, but turns out it was planned for 10.50am, yikes. Once I got seated the blood was drawn at 11am. No

Breast pain
I occasionally have breast pain after a double mastectomy, 8 chemo treatments and 30 radiation treatments. I am now on Ibrance and Femara. I also had 16 lymph nodes removed on the side which had the cancer. Is it common to experience breast pain and what causes it? Just had a PET scan with good results

Abnormal iron results
Hello, can anyone let me know if abnormal iron results are a Hashi's thing? They've been like this for a couple of years now (tests all done privately) but NHS haven't ever tested for it. Is it worth pursuing with the GP or just leave it alone. I don't take any iron supplements so I don't really
