Early Hypo/Hashi's Complicated By Adrenal/Low Cortisol
Greetings everyone: Finally got fed up with my family doctor who knows nothing and went two routes - endocrinologist (my doctor reluctantly gave a referral) and naturopath. Symptoms I have just about every symptom of hypothyroidism I have ever read and I am confirmed Hashi's by antibodies and ultrasound

Mastectomy distress
Had my mastectomy last week and I’m having the dressing and last drain out tomorrow. When I went for the first check up Monday, I got very upset and couldn’t look at the scar and asked for it to be recovered until tomorrow, I thought it would be fine and I’d not care about losing the breast if the cancer

Anyone out there with recurrent non-metastatic breast cancer?
Hi everyone, I'm new here and I hope you can help me. I was first diagnosed in 2009 with stage 2 IDC(invasive ductal carcinoma) in my right breast. Had a lumpectomy, chemo (ACT) and 6 weeks of radiation. In March 2013, I found another lump in the same breast. Had a bilateral mastectomy with reconstruction

I'm new here, please help with blood test results.
I had blood test results back from Medichecks. I felt I've had hypothyroid symptoms for quite a few years ( I'm 56 ) but GP blood results have always come back within range. My worst symptoms are tiredness and brain fog and a bad memory, which are seriously affecting my life now. Also, feeling cold

Hsg test
So finally I got sense out my GP surgery who have agreed to refer me for this test (long story but I had a battle on my hands). No guarantees they will agree to investigations though. I've requested the test as I'm nearly 39 and not once been pregnant. Prior to my OH's vasectomy he fathered two children

I have hysterectomy. Daughter starts periods 5 weeks later
So I had a complete hysterectomy 5 weeks ago, left ovaries because I’m only 33. My daughter has been having nasty cramps n little discharge for a few months but I was aware that it can take a while to fully kick in. Yesterday I was on bbc radio Sussex live for an interview about my journey with endometriosis

One year wait for reconstruction?
Hi, I am sure there must be a few of you out there that can answer my question:- "Why is it that some ladies can have a reconstruction at the same time as mastectomy, yet some of us have to wait a year?" Is there something that I am just not getting or being told? Take care all x

Just three years ago, I had small stage 1 cancer followed by lumpectomy and radiation. All was done so it would not return. About six months ago, it was back and crazy. I'm now taking Ibrance and Anastrozole. It has been difficult, but fortunately, I'm tolerating the medication quite well. Now the

Great news and busy times
Sorry it has been a while since I posted but lots has been happening. On May 30 I had a bilateral mastectomy. July 8 I had to go back in because the right tissue expander had staph infection. On August 2 teachers started back to work in classrooms and kids started the 12. On Aug. 17 I got the results

Are supplements worth it?
So cycle 1 I got 18 eggs on long protocol. 16 mature, 13 of which fertilised (good fertilisation rate) but only 3 made it to day 5. I was only taking folic acid first round and developed OHSS. I finally got to fet which failed with a 1x4AB. I was and still am devastated. I have high amh 45.2 at age 38
