My recovery is going well. I still struggle with constipation and trying to balance it from the occasional diarrhea when I use a laxative or some thing to help.
My surgery was in the end of February and I still get random pains but overall I feel pretty good. I had my surgery and Stanford without mesh.
Where did you have yours?

@baz, so glad you came back to report on your surgery. I have rectal prolapse but also have proctitis, which evidently has healed but am left with scar tissue, and am concerned about that with surgery as I don't want a stricture to form in my rectum. I also am thinking of going to Stanford to talk about surgery but am so apprehensive. Thanks for reporting back as I was looking for your post. I just joined this site. Who was your doctor, if you remember?
