Confused Radical Hysterectomy blues.........

About 16 years ago I had a radical hysterectomy and developed bladder, and bowel nerve damage. My "plumbing functions have NEVER BEEN THE SAME".
Of course because I was 33 and young I was to have no side effects.
My new diagnosis at that time was adenocarcinima of the cervix. By listening to my inner soul I DID NOT take radiation treatments. My lymph nodes were negative. I know now without a doubt I would have had a urostomy, and a colostomy by now.

Since that time my bladder is in poor shape: Between the urine retention, due to no urge to void, and large amount's of urine incontinance. I now have a suprapubic cathter, along with 2 inter-stim's pudendal nerve implants that do not work. I have been told that when I get tired of it all a contient diversion is what I will end up with at least for my bladder function. with my bowel it is just a motility issue, and I am very lucky there.

Anybody out there with this similar problem?
Thanks all for reading my story, but I want the world to know all this has happened to me. Beleive me, there is MORE!
