I had mesh many years ago. I had rectal prolapse. That hole area needed support. My doctor decided to experiment on me and not tell me. Some docs were using orthopedic sutures. It was suppose be stronger. Well let me tell you. I was a mess! The suture started coming through into my vaginal wall. Serious drainage and odor. When I went for FU visit he sees the suture. He decides to try to pull it out pluck it out and nothing for pain. It was very traumatizing. Terrible. I’m sure I got an antibiotic for infection. I went back again for follow up and again he picked and pulled on suture. This happened 2 or 3 times. I do believe 3. After that appointment I told him “no more”! Take me back to surgery and get this stuff out! So that’s what happened. Truly one of the worst situations I’ve been in. I had an hour drive home after each appointment that I just cried It was such a painful experience. I didn’t know he “experimented” until he had to tell me. I was so angry I couldn’t see straight. Now I have urinary incontinence the worst ever (for me anyway)I did the most recent implant for urinary incontinence but it only worked about 6 months. Now I gush which soaks my close. I’m wearing this giant pad and I’m sick of it all. I’m peeing a lot that I don’t even realize. I don’t know if I have any other options. Between constantly peeing on myself and long term COVID I’m extremely frustrated and sometimes depressed. It’s awful!😞
