Has anyone had personal experience with rectovaginal fistula repair?

Hello @blinken
It sounds as if you are considering all of the factors necessary in order to ensure a reasonably successful surgery. I'm facing some elective surgery myself (at age 73). This elective surgery will improve the quality of my life so I have decided to go forward with it. If I wait another few years my ability to tolerate surgery might be lessened and I might not be able to go forward.
Keep posting your thoughts as you work through this decision. I'm glad that Connect is giving you a place to do this.

Yes, I'm grateful for all of us who have discovered and use Connect. And being 78, I also am factoring in my age and quality of life. I wish there were more on the + side than the - or on the maybe side......
