I did it! I had the surgery and pain was not the problem. I am frightened of bleeding. I was ok until the 6th day when I poured bowls full of blood when I had bowel movements. this went on for 2 days and I thought I was dying. I saw the nurse and she tried to reassure me everything was alright. it settled down to a yellowsh brown discharge. It will be 6 weeks this Monday and I have noticed a slight staining. I am again getting panicky. of course the office is closed and I don't want to call the emergency # because it is not really an emergency. but I just don't understand why there would be some light blood. does anyone know if it accompanies the dissolving of stiches at 6 weeks? would appreciate any answers. thanks. ggm

I only had a bladder tie up with the "new mesh" and the sling to lift the urethra. Your vaginal closing surgery is a different procedure. My bleeding afterwards was unremarkable. Yet if I had that much bleeding I would be panicked also as I would assume something broke loose. If upsets me that with all that bleeding you only got to see a nurse. Now 6 weeks later you should be healed and don't understand why the doctor isn't examining you for your residual discharge. Why not be assertive and go to the office and park yourself there until your doctor will take the time to examine you.

@ggm43 - just wanted to check in with you and see how your recovery is going? Are you still having some light blood?
