pictures and posts
Barry,
you have 2 options:
- if you have the picture available on some public server and know the path to it, you can include the picture in your post using the img command from the menu that appears when you write your post. Include the path in the img code and the picture will appear as in the above post. This works for every user.
- if you are logged in as a registered user, you can also upload your picture from your PC to the forum server. It will then appear as appendix to your post.
I know I ought to write a manual for the forum software .... the day will come.
Wolfgang

I use http://photobucket.com/ Barry although there are plenty of image hosting sites around to upload pictures from your PC onto. Then just copy the link attached to a particular image from your album on the image hosting site and insert the image into the post using the image command below the smilies and that link from the image hosting site (althought photobucket just requires a paste of the link). It's really easy.

Re: UK treatment of Dupytrens using radiation
Can anyone who has been treated at Poole tell me approx how long between initial consultation and beginning the treatment? I was seen initially in January and have heard nothing further so far on my treatment date. I am not worried, just curious as to how long I might have to wait?

Re: UK treatment of Dupytrens using radiation
I'd just give someone at Poole a call (possibly the radiotherapy department/appointments or Dr Goode's secretary if that fails). Everything was quick and efficient for me so if you're a month waiting then make the call.

Re: UK treatment of Dupytrens using radiation
Totally agree with Trev.
Make a call - they will totally understand that you have been patient so far & would like to know what happens next & when.

Re: UK treatment of Dupytrens using radiation
I'm two days into my second treatment. In the six weeks inbetween treatments there has definitely been some improvement.
Although I had no contracture, my little finger especially was quite tight but now it and the ring finger seem to be independent once again with clearly defined knuckles. The biggest and most active looking nodule in the palm below my little finger has certainly shrunk. The nodules and cord in line with my ring finger don't look too different at the moment (maybe a touch flatter) but the base of the ring finger is certainly less bulbous and looks more like a normal finger
I have had some dry skin but hopefully this will improve over time with constant moisturising. I have had some minor skin irritation, also with a small area looking like sunburn, on the thumb area and webbing between it and forefinger but that is ok at the moment. Whether this full week will irritate that area again we'll have to see?
So fingers crossed that the good news continues
One interesting point when I went to see my GP was that I reported a knuckle pad that has appeared on my left hand 2nd finger. I said that I suppose that that's just another unfortunate result of Dups? My GP said that he wasn't aware of a Dups link to knuckle pads

Re: UK treatment of Dupytrens using radiation
Hi Trevor, glad to hear of your improvement. I still haven't had an appointment for my treatment to begin, I think I will email Dr Goode's secretary. I did ring her a couple of weeks ago and she said she would ring me back but haven't heard anything from her yet. I am in no hurry, I just want to make sure I haven't missed any post from them.
Keep us informed on your progress won't you?
Best Wishes
Mary
