Hello all Hope everyone is doing ok. I am new here. I found out end of August that I had a 17cm cyst on my left ovary. The MRI did not determine if the cyst was malignant or benign. My gynae-oncologist arranged for emergency surgery on the 6th September but during surgery it burst. I had my left

Prominent pathologist at Johns Hopkins on leave, facing bullying claims, WaPo, by Steve Thompson & Katie Shepherd, 10/22/23
Looks to be another case of professional success breeding professional arrogance and familial preference. Seems to be a lot of that going around these days - in all sectors of society. BTW, as a patient, my fav reader comment to the article is: "tell someone that they make a nice anecdote". * * *

tumor in spleen
my husband is having his spleen out very soon due to 2 tumors. We won’t know for sure if they are cancer until pathology done. He had radiation plus Lupron and has been in remission 2 years. 4 + 4 Psa still non detectable. Tumors picked up on pet scan to check kidney. Radiologist has said rare

Second opinion required
Had a lot of dental work done last year and kind of still going through recovery. I had two extracts, three temp bridges one perm bridge that was fitted in July, four composite fillings, cap then ended up with a root filling through the cap. My bridge is so uncomfortable still unable to eat properly

Struggling with abdominal cramps and bloating in the evenings and mornings
I'm recently diagnosed in September. I'm taking 200mg twice daily of mebeverine which helps with going to the toilet daily but I'm finding that I'm getting bad abdominal cramping and bloating in the evenings and the morning which then settles during the day, only to flare up again later on. Does anyone

My complaint has been going on for at least 10 years now and the symptoms get worse every year but I am unsure of how to proceed. My symptoms. Every intake of breath seems to increase the pressure in my oesophagus and every few seconds I have to either break the seal by flexing my throat to intake

any way to increase ferritin without increasing iron saturation?
after two months of taking iron supplements (75mg every other night on empty stomach), my ferritin rose from 51 to 158. Unfortunately, my iron saturation rose from 46% to 59%. This is caused by fairly high iron (172) and fairly low transferrin (291), though both are within normal range. My doctor

IBS or not
I’ve had ongoing stomach pains for over 2 years, had ct scans, sigmoidoscopy, endoscopy, nasal gastosgraphy plus mri scan . I have a sliding hiatus hernia which my doctor thought was the problem, but they couldn’t find it ! Hospital have said all tests are fine, and abdominal pain is due to something

Gastroscopy aftermath!
I had a gastroscopy yesterday evening. He went down into my stomach and small intestine. I've had a few of these in the past - the last one 20 years ago. I cannot remember feeling quite so bruised and sore as I did last night and still do. He took a biopsy and so I know my stomach will be sore and will

Feeling really low
I posted here a few weeks ago regarding having an MRI for ongoing back pain. The MRI only showed degenerative changes, but also picked up a small lymph gland outside the pelvis. I’ve had to wait 4 weeks for a CT scan and get the results tomorrow. My mind is playing tricks on me I’m thinking the worse
