general anaesthetic with CHD
hello, I wondered if anyone has any information around the risks of a general anaesthetic when you have CHD? I have a mild atheroma in my LAD. I need to have surgery for breast cancer and I’m worried about whether a GA carries more risks for me. I don’t think I’ll see the anaesthetist until shortly before

Retzius Sparing surgeon recommendations
Hello everyone. I’m 49 years old. I was diagnosed with PCa in 2018. It was determined Gleason 3+3 after biopsy, so we decided on Active Surveillance. I checked PSA religiously every 6 months and it hovered around 5 the whole time since the diagnosis. Last year during summer I believe I started experiencing

Few hours to my OHS
Dear all, In about ten hours, I should be on my way to theatre to have my ASD closed via open heart surgery! Strange enough, I feel relatively calm and no tense as all my friends, family and some of my nurses are. 😅 What most used to worry me was the possibility of complications or unexpected

New diagnosis and bad clinic experience
Hi all. After battling through symptoms for years, being dismissed, being referred to every which specialty, I asked for a gynae referral and had an MRI. The consultant unsympathetically told me I have adhesions, my uterus has moved, and an ovary is squished and attached to my colon. So she's recommended

I’m scheduled to have DBS surgery February 29 - if you have had DBS, is there anything you wish you‘d known beforehand?
I want to prepare mentally (and physically) for the surgery, and would appreciate any input from members of this community who have had the experience of DBS surgery. Thank you in advance. Wayne
