diverticulitis incontinence
Diverticulitis hot of nowhere. I fell down the stairs, was life flighted to UH main Campus, and had multiple Harkin’s procedures. Gutted thrice, like a catfish. I’ll be with ostomy for rest of my life. It’s been 40 days. Weak as a kitten I’m just in to rehab but still draining. They equipped me

Following my push to try and increase my FT3 levels (see my post of a few weeks ago) 3 weeks ago my consultant suggested I increase my Levo from 125mcg to 137.5 mcg for 2 months as he thought this might increase my T3, he had my graphs showing my FT3 was then at 15%. 2 weeks into the increase, which

Return of the Duck. The Saga Continues.......
Good morning guys and gals.Hope everyone is as well as they can be. Well, here's the promised update from a couple of years ago but to be fair, nothing much had happened on the heart surgery front, I'd been in nsr and I have still been contributing replies. Settle down with a strong drink of choice,

hi all! I had my endo removed via laparoscopic surgery 21/11/2023 - over the last few days the pain in my left side has been awful / is it normal to go and come back? I don’t belive this is Endo pain as it sharp, breath taking?! Who do I call? My doctors, the surgeon or is this normal:( thanks

miracles do happen
hi just wanted to share my good news. I have had painful periods most of my life ( with the word painful being an understatement). At age 23 I bled for 50 days and had an MRI scan which showed an endometrioma, adenomyosis and a polyp. My gynaecologist wanted to perform surgery but I said no as I read

If I Didn't Have Faith and Family Like You!
Now, I just shared my story about my weekend in NY seeing Chris Botti; now I'm sitting in the Family Waiting Room of Jefferson Hospital for hubby to get out of surgery. He kept complaining of bad back and stomach pain. Well, large Kidney Stone causing a blockage! He needed a different procedure; not

Depression and physical pain
My depression had improved a lot this year by changing to a more active lifestyle and changing jobs to be less isolated (among other things). But I had surgery for carpal and cubital tunnel and cannot work for a month. This is week 3 and my depression is getting worse from inactivity and isolation and

Major surgery and a Vasovagal event
I’ve been taking 5mg pred for a while. Reduced to 4.5 and after a few weeks began to feel unwell. I told my doctor who said go back on to 5mg. I then went into hospital last week. I had gluteal reconstructive surgery. The anaesthetist suggested I should increase my pred. So I did the sick day rule and

Surgery Today!
I’m having spinal surgery today in my neck. So glad it’s finally happening but rather nervous too. I have cervical stenosis and myelopathy so I’m hoping this operation will stop the progression of spinal cord damage 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻. Has anyone else had this happen. Not sure if it’s RA related or not.

Small hernia
I have Stage 3 low grade ovarian cancer and had debulking surgery 18 months ago. I got over the surgery very quickly and have been very lucky with no recurrence so far. Yesterday I saw my Oncologist who said she had found a small hernia but I should carry on as normal but avoid heavy lifting. I’m

Tricuspid regurgitation
Hi, I got the results from my Echo today and I have severe tricuspid regurgitation and was wondering if anyone could help with information. I have to wait to see a cardiologist but my doctor said that it might mean surgery. Would appreciate any information, Many thanks Heather x

cataract surgery and prednisolone dose
This morning I had my eyes tested. This time last year I was told I had the beginnings of a cataract in my left eye, due to prednisolone. Today I was told that, thanks to prednisolone, the cataract is now ready for surgery. I said I didn't want it yet, because I am trying to get my prednisolone dose

Starting Statins.
I’ve had permanent AF for three years, now 78 and am on Apixaban and low dose bisoprolol as well as thyroxine and pramipexole for RLS . After recent blood tests Surgery decided I should be on Statins. Atorvastatin now perscibed but not started. Seems to be a safety net as Cholesterol is within normal
