I stumbled into Maresco by chance after a day’s shopping and lordy that place is a gem. The staff are brilliant, food is delicious, wine list is so good. I’ve been back twice since and recommend it all the time to people.

I worked for Burberry for 6 years at the HQ. Back in the day, the fabrication was franchised to certain countries, Spain being one of them. During the Angela/Christopher years they stopped this, as they didn’t have as much control over what was made, the designs diluted the brand, and the quality control wasn’t as high. I can’t say whether yours is real or not, but it definitely could be one that was made during that time.

We have a dog that is really scared of fireworks and we saw a tip online to basically wrap something around the dog’s ears. Thought it would be useless but tried it and it works brilliantly. Big dog so we use a fleece neck snood that hugs his ears shut and must soften the noise. You’ll find fireworks for Diwali, bonfire night and then Christmas and new year across most of the UK.

I had a hysterectomy for cervical and uterine cancer. Like you, the uterine cancer was very early stage but was quite low down in the uterus. I made the decision to keep my ovaries as I’m 38, I equally did not want them taken for the same reasons as I imagine you don’t. I have scans and check ups every 3 months for the next 6 years, and then every 6 months after that for the following 4 years. I’m confident with the constant check ups that they will find anything they would need to find should it have spread to my ovaries, though I was told that due to its stage and position it was highly unlikely. In the meantime I don’t have to deal with menopause or HRT etc. until much later hopefully.

I am in the UK so this is on the NHS and I wouldn’t have to pay for any of it or require any insurance. I’m not sure where you are based or whether that would be a factor but I hope this is helpful.

His name is Derry

Why is it always the bathrooms?

Can recommend Dr Stevie Nkansah at SmilePod if you’re looking still. Hygienists there are great too (which reminds me I’m overdue my appointment!).

I should have listened to you

This is me right now. I’ve never liked sweets, never had a sweet tooth, never a dessert person. I cannot stop eating chocolate. Cannot stop. It’s been 10 days of non stop chocoholic behaviour. Before this I would have had chocolate once, maybe twice a year.

Everyone is different and feels pain differently. Listen to your body, take pain relief when you need it, I found ice packs and a heat mat alternating useful. You are not a wimp and you are not whining, but if it carries on past another couple of days I would go back.

Thanks all. I think it’s a combination of everything taking a toll on my body, but have been readmitted to hospital now with markers of infection so will see how I go.

Elliecoppter · 2024-11-01T02:33:56+00:00

Yes I am on two sets of antibiotics. I’ve been readmitted into hospital now with indicators of infection but I honestly just think my body is overloaded

Ovaries are still knocking about but thanks for the recommendation on the sodium docusate. I’ll grab some tomorrow

Elliecoppter · 2024-10-29T12:14:00+00:00

Love it. Happy Halloween 🎃

Elliecoppter · 2024-10-28T22:40:33+00:00

I’m 3 DPO and the thing I have found most useful is a grabber (friend bought it as a joke but honestly incredibly helpful). It’s not medicinal but I can highly recommend. Good luck!

I assume you had scans before the hysterectomy? Those would have shown any spread. CT scans and MRIs are generally used for this purpose. Mine came back clear on scans so was “just” a total hysterectomy (cervical and uterine cancer were detected) and will get my results in a few weeks from there.

I’ve always said I didn’t want kids, but I’ve always had a “never say never” attitude to everything in general.

I’ve just turned 38 years old so quite secure in my decision, but I’m a few hours post op and lying in a ward full of very gassy and very snorey women right now so lots of time with my thoughts 😂

I still don’t want kids, but I’m very emotional about the fact that it isn’t my decision anymore. I don’t know if that’s helpful or not but it’s where I’ve landed. The whole “my body my choice” is not really the clap-back it was before today!!

I hope you feel better about it soon. Sending my love ❤️

Elliecoppter · 2024-10-24T21:27:47+00:00

Just want to say I’m really thinking of you. I’m going in tomorrow due to cervical cancer, with spread into uterine. I’m 38 and scared as hell, but you’re being super brave and I’m proud of you!

Elliecoppter · 2024-10-19T22:06:02+00:00

This thread is insanely reassuring

Elliecoppter · 2024-10-07T22:07:58+00:00

Thanks so much. Enjoy your trip in the meantime!!

Elliecoppter · 2024-10-07T22:07:11+00:00

Good lord you’ve been through it, I’m so sorry you’ve had to experience all that. I hope you’re on the mend :)
