Want to discuss prolapse bladder or any kind of prolapse

Hi, @galah11 -- Really sorry to hear about this prolapse that is impacting your life at this point, plus the leg pain. That sounds super uncomfortable and inconvenient to have a golf-ball size bladder sitting "there" and having trouble with walking and standing.

Very wise that you are trying to learn more at this point.

I think that some of the women in this discussion may have some thoughts for you, like @pizon @goldenretriever @skd43usa and @letsgo, may have some input for you regarding surgical or nonsurgical options and how to manage the discomfort you are experiencing.

@galah11, what is your history with this condition? Has this come on you suddenly, or has this been building over time?

Hi and thanks for the kind reply, and reply. It’s been coming on for a time ( I had a trip to Thailand planned) but I delayed mentioning it to my GP until recently. I didn’t realise the leg pain was related and was going to investigate that also. I’m waiting for an appointment and discussion with a gynaecologist. Reading here I guess I feel nervous at surgery because of the mesh scandles and other people’s bad experiences but would rather not have the pain and discomfort for ever. I’m also waiting for a physio appointment and wonder how much improvement learning correct kegel exercises will do. So I’m in limbo, waiting, and trying to learn more. Thanks again
