Miss TT.....Please see a Urogynocologist and not a urologist. I made the mistake of having the Cystocele performed by a urologist. Many problems were a result of his surgery. Also when a Cystocele is repaired, the wall of the vagina should be reinforced at the same time so as to prevent a Rectocele from happening. (when the bladder is put in a different position, there is room for the lower bowel to come down and press against the vaginal wall, thus causing a Rectocele). Had that been done at the time of my cystocele surgery, I would not have needed Rectocele surgery.

Also, using the mesh and levaquin antibiotic for 14 days after the Cystocele surgery; within two weeks after surgery my legs and feet/ankles started swelling. Also, developed Statis Dermatatis as well in feet, ankles and now up to my knees. I take 2 water pills a day just to keep the swelling down.
