I have just read about a new procedure for surgery of the CMC joint in the thumb. It's a much smaller infusion, doesn't involve removal of a whole bone and is supposed to have a much faster recovery time and little loss of strength. It involves an implant called the Bio Pro thumb implant.

View 2 RepliesImplant? Bloating, Constipation And Headaches
Me and my partner have had unprotected sex since we have been together, however this isn't a problem (so I Thought) because I have the implant and so far had it for 2 years .. I've never had a problem before but recently I haven't come on my period for two months, which I know is a side effect of the implant but i've always been regular with it anyway Hoyt I've been experiencing bloating, constipation, headaches, nausea gas sand and shortness of breathe, all of which I'm told are signs of pregnancy.
I did a wilkos own pregnancy test and it showed to be negative so why am I experiencing all these problems? Would it be best to try another one?
I've talked to my doctor and he believes there is no way of me being pregnant because of the implant however I've heard of people who have been pregnant while having it.
Im very confused and wondering if anyone could help? I'm also having my implant taken out on Monday!! Very undecided whether I wasn't that done now or not...... I don't have other signs like darker areolas or tender breasts however have had pains as though I was about to come on my period but I haven't and that was two days ago!
Switch From MonoNessa (pill) To The Implanon Arm Implant
I'm going to be making the switch from MonoNessa (pill) to the Implanon arm implant. I just wanted to know if anyone has had any experiences with it and what kind of side effects they experienced. I'm terrible at remember to take the pills, so they just weren't practical for me, but I want to make sure I'm not making a mistake as I have heard horror stories of women losing fertility after using Implanon.
View 1 RepliesMenstruation :: Pill And Implant - Very Irregular Periods
I have gotten the implant in April 2015, and I thought this would help me through my periods as they were quite painful at times. I tried the pill, but since I'm already taking epilepsy medication, I didn't like the idea of taking another pill as well as them! In anyway, my periods are very irregular.. I mean, I could sometimes have spotting for a few days, or mistake it for a period because it's so light.. Then maybe, I could have two periods a month because of this! It's very annoying, as I don't even know when I'm going to have my next period, and I don't even get the symptoms i useta anymore.. It's such a pain!! Anyone have any thoughts on this?

I had surgery 5 days ago. An implant was placed in the big toe. Still having pain. Saw dr. yesterday (changed dressing) & removing stitches next week. Went to a podiatrist. Does anybody know how long pain will last? I think he said when I return next week, I can drive (it's right foot) wearing a slipper, not the surgical boot. Won't it hurt to drive at this point?

Hallux Rigidus Surgery - Hemicap (implant) Resurfacing Procedure?
Has anyone ever had toe surgery for hallux rigidus using a Hemicap resurfacing procedure? I've been online researching & it seems that this is an implant, but recovery is much faster with this type & from what I can gather, it's an improvement over other methods. Patient testimonials show really fast recoveries, people walking the day after surgery without a surgical shoe & return to work much faster. On my previous post, I noted that I had surgery last week with an implant. The podiatrist said it was a Hemi implant, but I don't think it's the same as this Hemicap. I'm interested in the Hemicap resurfacing because I'm developing pain in the toe on the other foot & plan to get more than one opinion this time.
View 1 RepliesAnxiety :: Medication Interference With Contraceptive Pills?
I could really use some advice as soon as possible. I've recently started going to therapy, and for whatever reason I seem to be getting worse. I have generalised anxiety, kinda severe ocd and mild depression.
I'm now considering meds as I can't seem to cope and I'm terrified almost all the time.
But I'm also on a contraceptive pill called microlite and I've heard some meds can stop the pill working right. I'm scared of unplanned pregnancy so I'd really appreciate advise from anyone who's on meds who could advise me what to take?
Obviously I'll talk to my doctor but she's a little old fashioned and I worry she might prescribe the wrong thing.
Birth Control :: Deciding Which Oral Contraceptive?
I don't know much about which brand of oral contraceptive I should use, partly due to nurses at planned parenthood not being very informative. Since there are many MANY different brands I figured I would just shout out my ultimate dream pill and see what suggestions you guys can give me. I want a pill that won't lower my libido and increases breast size. Some have taken me from a b to a d, some only half a cup. Would love that extra boob again lol thanks guys!**also I tend to get a little emotional so I'm not too sure where to go from here.

Has anyone heard of the correlation between the birth control implant and severe anxiety and depression?

View 1 RepliesHemifacial Spasm :: After Stent Implant - Face Twitch, Droopy And Painful
A little over twelve years , directly after I had a stent implant in one of the main arteries to my heart, the left side of my face developed a twitch. I mentioned the twitch to my cardiologist, and he said, "We all get little twitches. it will go away. It didn't. It progressively became worse and effected my trigeminal nerve. The first neurologist that I was referred to recommended botox. All that I got out of that was the left side of my face being, numb, droopy, twitchy and painful. I went to several doctors and dentists in Spokane. The dentists told me that my teeth were not causing the pain and the neurologists kept prescribing me the same prescriptions. I also tried physical therapy and acupuncture. I had two teeth extracted with the hope that it would relieve the pain. I decided to get proactive and read about microvascular decompression (MVD) surgery. I found that they performed MVD in Seattle at the University of Washington. I e-mailed a detailed description of my symptoms, and they made an appointment to see me. The surgeon (Dr. Rostomily) that I met with asked me, "How long I have you lived with that condition." I told him, "A little over seven years," he said, "I don't know how you have done it." Fourteen days later I had the surgery and when I woke up I was free of the twitch. That was in 2010. I still have the nerve pain on the left side of my face. I am positive that if the neurologists in Spokane had referred me to the U of W Medical Center once that I was diagnosed, that I would also be free of the pain. Last week I started seeing a Physical Therapist (PT) and after the session there was improvement. Hopefully the sessions with the PT will eventually lead to a pain free life. My advice: If you develop HFS and it gets worse, don't delay ... get MVD surgery.
View 2 RepliesDental Health :: Abscess After Tooth Extraction And Bone Graft - Implant?
I recently had a fractured tooth extracted. I had previously had a root canal and crown on the same tooth. After the extraction, a bone graft was done. We are in the process of waiting to get the implant done. Today, however, I noticed a little mound in the space where the tooth was extracted. I popped it and the liquid was consistent with previous abscesses I had. I immediately cleaned it with hydrogen peroxide and water. Seems like these pop up a little bit more when I have sinus issues. My question is whether not I should wait a little longer before getting the implant. Do I also need to go back to my oral surgeon and let him know? Not sure if this is normal or not.

I'm 48 and would like feedback on the TURP surgery...
I've had issues with my prostate over the past 2 years. Last October it was 3.9 cm x 4.9 cm. An now its measured at 5.9 cm x 5.7 cm during the past year I've noticed I was getting 5-8 times a night and during the having to rush to the restroom with no time spare, in the past 4 months I've had to force my urine out. Called doc he ordered urodynamics test, it showed that my bladder has no reaction when I'm full of urine. Doc said MY prostate is so large it's shutting off my urethra tube. So he said I need the TURP surgery. .
I'm so unsure about this because I've had penile implant surgery this past Jan. and if I have the TURP I'll lose my ejaculation...
I also would like to know how to do all with not being able to cum?
