Gallbladder
Hurrah and Yay ... in November 2011 I was supposed to be admitted for a cholecystectomy, however this coincide with the date of my mother's inquest and the due date of first grandchild so I refused. NHS said I have a 1 : 5 chance of being an emergency patient within the next five years, I reasoned I

Surgical Menopause - Thyroid Levels Normal?
Hi! I hope you can help please. I'm struggling to optimise my HRT and am worried that my thyroid levels may be too low and are contributing to my problems. My TSH is 0.72 (range is 0.35 - 5.00)and my Free TH is 10.8 (range is 9.0 - 21.0). If anyone can advise if I need to pursue further investigation

I'm hoping for some advice.
Hello everyone, i'm glad to find a community like this to come to. My mother has just had surgery for bowel cancer (R hemicolectomy plus bilateral oopherectomy although no news on the ovaries yet) 10 days ago. She has done really well and feels emotionally ready for the possibility of chemo but doesn't

Total hysterectomy - resentful
It's only a few weeks since my endo was diagnosed and I've now been advised to have a TAH due to fibroids in uterus, and removal of both ovaries to stop more endo growing ( & the right ovary is badly damaged by cyst anyway). Excising the endo alone apparently wouldn't stop the pain as fibroids would

The big operation tomorrow đź’Ş
I'm going for the full hysterecomy with omentum & lymph node removal in the morning . The operation has been brought forward 2 weeks early I'm excited that things are moving forward but also terrified at the same time. Results will be 2 weeks after to determine what course of treatment I will receive

Foods/Supplements-Vitamins: Medicinal Fungi - Button mushroom - Agaricus bisporus
Surely I jest? The lowly white button mushroom [WBM] contains an aromatase inhibitor. As such, it may inhibit the conversion of testosterone to estradiol. WBMs are also a source of conjugated linoleic acid [CLA]. Surely, not a whole lot - but [1c] describes it as "an important component". & "WBM was

What to do with lymph nodes?
I will have an interval debulking surgery next week. My PET scan shows NED after 3 cycles of chemo. I had enlarged para aortic lymph nodes initially. I have clear cell histology. My oncologist wants to do laparatomy with complete lymphadenectomy (removal of all pelvic and para aortic lymph nodes). I

Debating whether to keep my ovaries...
Hello All, I'm awaiting a date for my total laparoscopic hysterectomy and am undecided whether to have an oophorectomy at the same time. I have adenomyosis and endometriosis on the left uterosacral ligament and ureter. I had initially elected to keep my ovaries and then panicked, rang my nurse and asked

leukotriene agonists and 5-lipoxygenase inhibitors
Hi Folks Need to tap into your direct experience of leukotriene agonists and / or 5-lipoxygenase inhibitors. Currently pattern is a need for 5 / 10 Day Oral Steroid Burst about every 4 to 5 Weeks. Thinking about asking my Consultant to give me one of the above if I need to have another Steroid Burst

Drain and cathered removed but have trapped wind not really slept all night. Wound is vertical and higher up than they wanted it to be but the gremlin is no more. No bowel movement

Little introduction!
Hello all! I just wanted to introduce myself, as I'm newly diagnosed with Endometriosis, and ovarian cysts. I had a laparoscopy on Monday to get a conclusive picture, and they carried out a cyst and ovary removal. Anyway- I consider myself incredibly lucky so far, as my first GP appointment was only

Checking back in to report on this crazy ride...
Hi friends. I haven't been on these boards for awhile because I've been dealing with other health issues, but I thought I'd check back in and report on my progress and new developments. I was diagnosed in January as a stage 2 PBC. I have an immune deficiency called Common Variable Immune Deficiency due

Endo after menopause and HRT
Hi All I'm new here :-) Although I've been using this website since being diagnosed for information purposes, this is my first post. I'm just looking for some advice really.

I'm still here
That title has more than one meaning now that I think about it. First it means I'm still alive. I survived gallbladder removal surgery, which went well and from which I'm still recovering. It also means I'm still here following this community and still having a few issues with B12. I feel as if the latest

Porcelain Gallbladder
Hi all. I've done the stupid thing of googling and now I'm concerned. My surgeon told me that my cholecystectomy was very challenging and that the gallbladder had, in effect, died and had become very hard. I see him again on the 31st October when I will get the lab results. He didn't mention a porcelain

DRIVEN BONKERS about time we had 100% answers researchers!
We are all in this, trying to find what to take, what not to consume, wanting a cure, told there isn't one or read it may be possible to get some kind of remission. You recall I, as some, can't take the meds, severe side effects. I also had several useless doctors so learned a lot from this site and
