Sex and the Endo
What I don’t…or what I haven’t said until now I guess… is that I have so many other
wounds
healing; the surgical ones are the tip of the iceberg. The years of painful sex have engrained a fear in me that doesn’t just go away overnight because the endo was cut out.

Lymphoedema and aroma therapy
Hi just want to have a moan. . . My lymphoedema nurse advised against the use of lavender to massage on skin as this and some other aromas encourage cancer cells to grow. I have looked this up and can only find positive reviews on this therapy. I will continue with my aromatherapy it has always soothed

Hi from Whittlesey
I hope all are well. A lot of physical things going on lately. The pred is currently down to two MG's/day. Have had hip surgery. Recovery became problematic due to the meralgia paresthetica (inguinal tendon wrongly connects to the lateral cutaneous femoral nerve). Had to lighten up. Was later taken

Finally
Hi I have finally got my date for total hysterectomy (due to adenomyosis), ovary removal, excision and possible bowel resection. 11th March. I can't wait to get this done and get on with the road to recovery.

Dressings off after first lap... now what?
I gave the
wounds
a little wash with warm water, but now what? They hurt and feel very exposed without dressing, do I just wash normally, should I bathe them? I wasn't given any instructions, I have put a call into the hospital but just wondered what did you do ?

CRPS Sufferers
It does this in approximately 10% of us. 7 – 8% of us may get
wounds
that take a very long time to heal and in the worst cases never do. The DoH has failed to comply with my request for 2013/14 and 14/15 figures but these are the official ones for 2009 – 2013.

Vein pain??
Hi all. Just wondered if anyone gets like a vein pain in legs and feet. I keep getting pain on bottom of foot and it feels like it's my vein and it's swollen. It feels like it's throbbing and going to burst. It's really difficult to walk when it hurts so much xx

What are these on my hands please...Anyone know? (See photo)
Hi, I am terribly worried about these cuts that never heal. The big one has been on my left hand for about 5 years and has never healed. (See photo) I have another one on my thumb which started off as a blood blister as result of a fall and now is refusing to heal and going the same way as the big one

Search for a new Pulm
So my Pulm released me as a patient today. I had emailed an update. I had mentioned I saw my PCP and that he recommended I use my Dulera which I had stopped. My Pulm said it was counterproductive to see "several" different physicians for the same problem, even though I only see him and my PCP. Mentioned

Slight 'blip' after ablation
Pains have all but stopped now, was obviously just aggravating the '
wounds
' when my heart was beating so fast for so long. I feel very well now, in fact I cannot even feel my heart beating, a strange feeling indeed!

scottish wild life in danger :D
For centuries Scotland has prided itself on the abundant numbers of Haggis or Haggi. but sadly these numbers are in decline.The seasonal bans on Wild haggis hunting has come almost too late, but with the introduction of Haggis farms to provide farmed haggis to companies such as Macsween, this has cut

Lap aftercare/showering?
I'm planning on not using soap or anything in the shower and just letting water softly wash the
wounds
then patting dry with some kitchen roll. I'm just worried about them getting infected :(

Staying With Grandparents...
Something my cousins and I grew to realise very quickly was that Granny had little time for our respective parents...I suppose she loved her sons...my Father was the eldest and the cousins Father was one of twins and came in the middle of the family...but she heartily disliked both their wives. Had probably

Day two after ablation(s), so far so good!
I had very little bleeding from the entry
wounds
in groin, and at the moment not much bruising. I think I may actually treat myself to a day in front of the telly today- I don't find it easy to be looked after, but am staying with my daughter and know I need to rest a bit!

Recovery from laporoscopy
The first two days passed with no issues, some shoulder pain and around the
wounds
but I was mobile ams eating/drinking well but these past 24 hours I've had a splitting headache and feel nauseous whenever I try to sit or stand, has anybody else experienced this? Do I need to be worried?
