It appears we are talking about the same procedure. A mesh procedure. I got the "new mesh" over 5 years ago. I didn't remember the medical term of my procedure. I Googled sacrocolpopexy- a surgical procedure to treat pelvic organ prolapse due to weakening of the normal support by attaching graft material (mesh) between the vagina and sacrum. What you need to do if you are a candidate is get the specific name of your mesh (the bad mesh is no longer sold). Google that specific name for lawsuits and negative side effects and make your decision. Personally I have learned to always double check what ever is going into or on my body as I have severe allergies even if a doctor recommends it. That's why I backed out of knee replacement surgery. I have 5 metal allergies and the surgeon was scheduled to put in a ceramic coated implant and I Googled it and discovered it had a class action lawsuit against it for failure. The surgeon hadn't even warned me of this lawsuit that had been going on for a year. I'd rather live with my limitations than have them cut out my knee, replace it with an implant I slowly reject and live with pain and inflammation even when I am not using it. If it had to be removed I would then be left with no knee and in a wheel chair. You are living with the side effects of the pessary, and my results with mesh were outstanding, but it is a risk and there can be consequences.
