Want to discuss prolapse bladder or any kind of prolapse

I agree the prolapse repair with mesh, even done vaginally is painful afterwards and it required an overnight hospital stay. I can handle strong pain pills like oxy without addiction; I needed pain meds for a week. The sling is an easier, outpatient procedure and it extends time between bathroom visits. In a just a few days I was off of pain meds. All that was 4 years ago and glad I don't have to live the rest of my life with a prolapsed bladder which is a handicap.

@gardenjunkie Isn't the sling only for stress incontinence? I do not believe it is effective for urge incontinence which is what I have. I did have Botox for it and it has helped during the day but I am still up very frequently during the night. I plan to have Botox again and I believe the doctor will do a bit more Botox at that time.
