HI again, my partner got the camera yesterday and dilation along with botox in the plyorus, which I understand.  the part im confussed over is it says he has "mild systemic disease", can anyone explain this a little bit?

Im reading about it, is it a recurrance or have I got that wrong?  Waiting to see the consultant but im probably worrying for nothing.

Thanks

  • Good Morning SamanthaN

    I am sorry that you are worrying over your partners camera check. 

    Has he got a CNS that you could ask to explain the mild systemic disease phrase while you are waiting for his consultant appointment? 

    We are not medically trained on here but you could think about asking one of the nurses on here. I will post a link. They normally get back to you within a couple of days. I have used them myself and found them helpful and reassuring.

    Another alternative is to give the Support line a quick call. The number is below.

    I hope this helps a bit, 

    Jane
