Nice to be here
I have just been diagnosed with severe chronic pancreatitis. I am really scared, even though I've had bad symptoms for some time. I'm on enzyme therapy and recently had to increase the dose. Would like to talk to people that have had experience with this. Thank you and I look forward to meeting you

Estrogen Replacement therapy after surgical menopause
Hi everyone! I would like to chat with somebody who may have or is going through a similar experience. I had a full hysterectomy- removal of everything, over 20 years ago. I am on 2mg of Estrogen once per day. The docs used to do the implant yearly but it is no longer available. I am now 51

Early breast cancer
I've just been diagnosed with early breast cancer. I've had mammogram, biopsy and mri. The lump is 3cm. I am awaiting a tests on my lymph nodes. Then have been told lumpectomy, radiotherapy and /or chemotherapy. It's oestrogen and progesterone driven. I am on hrt, I'm perimenopausal. I also had a heart

HRT post ovarian cancer
Hi, does anyone have anything on HRT post ovarian cancer and radical hysterectomy? I’m 14 years post diagnosis and struggling with brain fog and fatigue. Is HRT an option?

Hypo, HRT and weight gain?
Hi. Have people who are hypo and use HRT gained weight since starting it? Everything I read re HRT, claims it can cause weight gain, which to a Hypo/Hashi sufferer, this is the last thing you want to hear. What have been people's experience? Thanks, appreciate it.

Methylation to feel good
Hi Folks, Thank you for all the advice and words of encouragement. I’ve been reading a lot of papers on methylation and the effects on the body, below is an article that seems to sum it up if interested… https://draxe.com/health/methylation/ I’ve also been doing a lot of reading on higher incidences

Both ovaries out or not?
Hi, its me again! So ive read my notes from my MDT meeting and noticed they want to take both my ovaries out when they do my hysterectomy and endo excision. One has a big endometrioma on it and as of last year the scan showed the other was healthy. My question is do I agree to them both coming out and

Dienogest withdrawal
Hi everyone,I could really do with some advice as I'm really struggling and don't know what to do. I've been in treatment for just over a year and my endo is shrinking nicely . I had Zoladex injections for 10 months with hrt. I struggled with the side effects and to find an hrt that didn't make me bleed

Is the end in sight???
Hi everyone, this is my first post and reading others seems I am in the right place to discuss these issues with others who know exactly what I am going through. Others, even close friends, I think at times just dont get it... From what I read others too have had a long long road to diagnosis and treatment

what to try next?
Hi everyone :) I don't think I've posted before, probably because as awful as endo is, I've been lucky in a lot of ways. . I was diagnosed via laparoscopy in 2015, and I live in a city with an accredited endo centre, so my surgeon knew what he was doing. He found and excised a few spots in various places

Accuracy doubtful due to fusion hardware?
L5/S1 hardware new since last dexa scan. The tech did ask for an opinion from a co-worker as she felt the imaging was being distorted due to the hardware, but was told it would not impact the readings. take hrt, d3/k2 and am active! Any thoughts?

Advice on Blood results please?
Hi, I'm not diagnosed with any thyroid problems but have had numerous blood tests over the last 4 years because of severe menopause symptoms that have not responded to HRT. Would you be able to have a look and see what you think please? I have also included some of the vitamins tested.

Meningioma advice
Hi all, I started getting constant headaches about three years ago. After being ignored by my doctors, I paid for a private neurologist, and he did an MRI, told me nothing was found and suggested it was menopause. I've had three years of headaches, dizziness, vision issues and utter fatigue and losing

HRT and fatigue
I'm quite interested to see if this resonates with anyone else .Was diagnosed with RA 2018, and been on methotrexate and Hydroxychloroquine ever since. Once the dose settled it's controlled the RA swelling. But the fatigue has been awful and constant. I assumed a result of the RA and side effects of
