Does anyone have severe (Grade 3 or 4) internal prolapsed and thrombosed hemorrhoids and told you need a hemmoroidectomy?
Sorry for the sensitivity of the subject..but can anyone relate? They say that one in three people develop hemorrhoids especially as one ages and they grow more severe. I want mine done with a laser as it is not such a painful long recovery. I'm also afraid of incontinence and long term recovery. Since

My daughter and GAN and PTSD
My daughter was diagnosed with GAN and PTSD when she was in Hospital. Now she has been a year, next Tuesday, in supported living and wants a copy of her diagnoses but is being denied that incase it triggers her PTSD just by reading it! Do I have the right to ask for a copy? I am very curious about what

Lidocaine Plasters/Patches.
Hello Everyone I've just been told by my GP that he can no longer prescribe Lidocaine Patches and instead there is a cream!. I've been having them for a long time for neuropathic pain and just wonder if this is correct.?. Also, is anyone trying the cream called LMX and how are you finding it?. Hope

Hydroxycarbamide twice a day - am & pm?
This sounds a very trivial question, but I know that you are a patient and helpful community. I was diagnosed with ET JAK2 last September. I began taking hydroxycarbamide in October 2022, one tablet per day. In December my dosage went up to 9 per week and the consultant said that I didn't have to

pulmonary embolism
good morning everyone. I’ve been poorly with a blood clot in my lung which after 4 doctors 1 paramedic 2 hospital visits they found on a chest X-ray. I had a bad chest infection too which was mimicking the clot. I’ve been on a course of blood thinners and feel completely wiped out. I had my 4 weekly

Hyaluronic acid excess
Hello Given the serious and worrying range of symptoms that are discussed here, I hope it's not annoying to ask about a minor one. I'm wondering if anyone else has a problem with excess hyaluronic acid and if so what facial moisturising creams are appropriate? A post I saw here some months ago helped

Long haul flight uk to Vancouver
I fly out to Vancouver at 2.00 pm so I can take my usual two doses of Gabapentin on the flight, I will land at about 4.00 pm Canadian time. Any suggestions to how I can manage the time change would be very welcome. The thought of jet lag combined with out of control RLS is frightening. I tried to discuss

Getting support for C-PTSD
The NHS are on their knees in regards to support for people's mental health. It is extremely difficult to access support, diagnosis and an up to date programme for people with anxiety, ADHD and C_PTSD. I think I may need to set up a support group myself.

Onto apixaban!
I'm awaiting ablation for PAF. Cardiologist has recommended that I should start on a low dose of an ACE inhibitor for raised blood pressure, so that has added a point onto my CHA2DS2-VASc score! Due to strong family history of heart disease, he thinks that my actual risk is more like a CHA2DS2-VASc

Intermittent claudication
4 years ago I was diagnosed with ic in my legs and unable to walk more than 100m. Joined gym and eventually did ct5k on treadmill but walking on a gradient rather than running. I'm on 3rd attempt now increasing speed and gradient each time. Can now walk 5k easily. Anyone else doing it like this?

Itchy Anus
so I’ve had an itchy anus for about a month now. It’s not haemarroids and it’s not thread worms. It’s an itch on the skin around it I’ve used Clotrimazole and that hasn’t helped. What is happening??

Change of anticoagulant
Hi wise ones, my GP practice has just called to ask if I am willing to change from rivaroxaban to adoxiban, in line with new NICE guidance. Apparently this is because the latter is less likely to cause bleeds. I have never had any problems with rivaroxaban, so am not sure whether I need to change.

8 week check up
Had an 8 week check up at Herbert Herman Cancer Center today. Doc says I'm doing excellent. He ordered a PET scan a month after my final Gazyva infusion 3/20. Is this normal procedure for those on O&V 12 month course? I though I wouldn't have any more scary test until the end of treatment. On bright

unsightly collateral veins in pelvis/pubic area.
I’ve been following these forums for a couple years now- but this is my first time posting here….. ok so here it goes… long story short I’m a 33 year old female. In May of 2021 I was diagnosed with DVTS from the tips of my toes, all the way up both legs, both sides of my pelvis and up my IVC. Needless
