Advice on Cataract surgery / narrow angle
Hi all, First I must apologise, I am new to Glaucoma and looking to get some guidance from ideally someone who may have had a similar experience. I am a 44 year old male who was diagnosed with narrow angles following a routine eye exam. My eyesight is pretty good and I only wear reading glasses occasionally

I just had to tell this story, I’m sure plenty of us have experienced being fobbed off with different diagnoses before being diagnosed with endo, however I’ve just experienced the opposite way around. I was diagnosed with endo and adenomyosis in November of last year, this weekend I fell really ill

Having a hard time getting my usual brands

This one's about some actual, real-life running. And not being normal.
Day 10 post-headbump came and went, then day 11 and day 12, and I was staring wistfully at the ceiling with a constant message circling around my head like a hunting falcon: [i]“Wait until you feel normal”[/i]. I jolted up so quickly that the tin of peas taped to my head went flying off and smashed

Cold cap advice?
Im a very lucky gal whose cancer was caught early (by accident) at stage 1c. I've had surgery and about to start chemo tomorrow. Carbopentin only. They booked me a cold cap as I was originally going to have Carbo + Taxil which usually results in hair loss. Now the risk is lower so not sure whether you'd

Hey all, I have spoken about this at great length with my friends & partner but obviously unless you know what it feels like, it's hard to give an opinion. I had a laparoscopy in June 2022 where I was diagnosed with Endometriosis and had the majority of it removed. The hospital I had this done at

I often read the experiences on CLL shared by our group on HealthUnlocked, and it's reassuring. I was diagnosed with CLL in 2013. After a long period of watch and wait (W&W), I was given only 2 cycles of chemo (BR) in 2019 instead of the planned 6 cycles due to severe side effects. Fortunately, I experienced

Does anyone know how long surgery is from your MDT meeting?
Hi warriors, I've just had my results from my MDT meeting. I've got to have a consent/discussion consultation and another with a bowel consultation incase I need a stoma. My question is, does anyone have a time scale of when they got surgery after the MDT meeting. I'm under Cambridge team. Thankyou

this is a new topic to ask - other than PMR related - but I’m just feeling a tad concerned (well, v.concerned tbh) about something else & just want some kind of offloading time. My husband recently saw the neurosurgeon for what he thought was just some kind of routine appointment following a recent
