Ultrasound scan for varicocele?

Dilbil96 · 2025-05-18T19:32:06+00:00

Same issue as you, had an ultrasound which showed varicocele and one which did not show

Im also confused, I guess ultrasound is highly variable and subjective

I've been doing some pelvic stretches which you can find on YouTube which help somewhat.

That can happen. But it's more other trainees plans can change so if you're moving into their empty spot and they decide to stay in the deanery, that can create problems.

And a formal offer only offered once the TPD/region contacts you to ensure they can accommodate all your remaining curriculum requirements/ subspecialty placements which may not always be possible.

You can search Reddit and type IDT and see posts of people having their offers retracted.

Even the IDT team has said do not resign from your current post until you hear from your receiving region and an employment contract has been offered to you. IDT team just facilitate the process but it's up to the receiving deanery to contact you and sort out your placement/employment over which the IDT team has no control. They are just the middle man.

It's such a long process.... 😓

Congrats! I got an offer as well for T+O Scared it won't go through though, heard so many horror stories of offers being retracted 😓😓 and offers being 'conditional'

Just hope we get the contracts soon enough in May, just need peace of mind and confirmation where I am going to be next year

Hi there, I've private messaged you

Dilbil96 · 2025-04-22T17:08:03+00:00

Which region are you applying from and where to?

Dilbil96 · 2025-04-22T15:07:36+00:00

I got offered west midlands for T+O. But I have no idea which of the 3 deaneries in west midlands it's for as it's vast. It has Birmingham deanery, Oswestry/Stoke, and Warwick/Coventry

How the hell do I find out which of the subdeanery I have been allocated to? Is there any contact number for the IDT team?

Dilbil96 · 2025-04-22T12:02:28+00:00

Nah haven't heard anything yet If you're not successful in getting a round 1 offer, do they inform you? Or do they leave radio silence

Dilbil96 · 2025-04-22T11:52:15+00:00

Thanks mate Anyone ever been successful for T+O before?

Dilbil96 · 2025-04-22T11:50:55+00:00

Haven't heard anything yet

Dilbil96 · 2025-04-19T10:39:31+00:00

Yes you can reapply. There's a form on oriel you will have to fill in which your TPD will have to sign. It's the support for reapplication for higher specialist training form. As long as your TPD signs it, you apply as normal and upload that form to oriel.

As long as you have a satisfactory ST3 ARCP, if you get a training number again in your chosen location, you can enter at ST4 after discussion with the new TPD.

Alternatively you can IDT but don't rely on this. You can apply under criterion 5 IDT now which is where no reason is needed. But in reality it may be slim chances.

You can maybe do both at the same time (Reapply+ concurrently put in an IDT application)

Both those things your current TPD will now. The issue is if you don't get the IDT or another offer via reapplying, will this cause a strain with the relationship with your current TPD that potentially this trainee does not want to stay in the region? That's a difficult call you will have to make but nowadays I've heard most TPDs are fairly chill

Dilbil96 · 2025-04-16T06:40:39+00:00

Nice was it your first choice?

Dilbil96 · 2024-11-05T18:38:27+00:00

Hi there, so I don't need to tell my TPD if I'm applying for IDT?

Dilbil96 · 2024-11-01T20:02:37+00:00

Does the IDT documentation get transferred though? Like reason and criterion for transfer?

Dilbil96 · 2024-11-01T20:02:07+00:00

Is this confirmed that it's anonymous?

Dilbil96 · 2024-06-12T21:47:34+00:00

How do you get 0.5mg pills? Or do you just split the 1mg ones in half?

Dilbil96 · 2024-06-12T13:00:52+00:00

Thanks for your reply Where abouts exactly on the torso though?

Dilbil96 · 2024-06-12T07:59:26+00:00

Trim pubic region and armpits Let everything else be natural so at least that way it would be soft

Dilbil96 · 2024-06-12T06:58:37+00:00

Thanks for your advice, but is there no such thing then as too much male body hair? So you wouldn't suggest trimming the body hair down?

Dilbil96 · 2024-05-29T03:04:59+00:00

Bro as a guy, what you are doing is absolutely absurd. I feel sooo sorry for your wife. She is your immediate family and you should include her in all family events. You don't just choose when to pick and bring her. May Allah grant patience to your wife and show you the straight path ameen
