vaginal mesh
I see postings on this ... how are you ladies doing that posted?
there are websites I am viewing now one called MeshAngel about slings
I had one put in 2004 10 yrs ago
I never remember a dr telling me anything about the problems these can cause. I wish my dr had not asked do I leak. I only did a little. I did the testing and they put this in with a total hysterectomy.
Now I am so stressed and upset I can't tell you when the mesh can be felt that is called erosion but drs are not telling me I have that I have urine retention and was told 4 yrs ago it is not related to the sling another dr said it is I luckily have had only 2 UTI's I had 4 yrs ago a stitch repair and told that is part of erosion by another dr No one seems to tell me the same thing
This hurts so much emotionally as I did not need this and to be told today by a ultrasound tech this is a last resort when nothing was offered to me such as pelvic floor PT. I remember looking up about this online but guess I missed the complications info.
What is scary is doing something with the sling can be just as bad as not doing anything. I have several health conditions already that can and will generate pain and now this trumps them all.
Did any of you do anything about your problems?
