I feel everything is coming out. Awful dragging feeling and all sorts of "nobbly" bits can be felt when I try and push it back. Feeling very nervous. Does this sound normal for a prolapse?
It does sound normal judith. How long have you been waiting for an appointment?
yes i feel your pain, its how i feel most of the time, i have my surgery on the 10 dec and feeling nervous bit cant wait to feel normal again!
Hola, Judith:
Parece que lo que tengo es exactamente eso. Siento como si la cabeza de un bebé estuviera saliendo por el área vaginal, y es muy difícil orinar, aunque siento que tengo que hacerlo casi todo el tiempo. Tengo una cita con el médico mañana para evaluar mis opciones. Te haré saber qué descubro. Odio pensar en la cirugía, pero ya no puedo soportar esta sensación de presión por mucho más tiempo. Además, también ejerce presión en mi espalda baja, y ya tengo problemas de espalda importantes. Que te mejores pronto.
Thanks for getting back to me Carole. Though I know its a common problem I feel as though I am the only one. Thats why I got onto this forum. Do let me know how you get on at Doctors. I had to go twice before he referred me to hospital. My appointment is for this Friday. I am at the point that I'm not worried about surgery as long as they can fix things. It would be good though if I could get away with a pessary. My mum had the same problem and she had a ring.
Take care
I have an hospital appointment this Friday. I waited about 3 weeks for this . It is really getting me down.
Mosnippy did you have to wait a long time for surgery? I can understand you being nervous I would be too but hopefully you should feel so much better to enjoy Christmas. All the best,
i fortunately have bupa so it all been very quick, they actually said to me last week we can do it on 26 nov and i was eeekkkk noo to soon lol
i tried the rings and they kept falling out but dr said the rings are not a long term solution for sexually active people/younger generations, as it can sometimes be felt
my consultant gave me a prescription for bladder pills which has helped loads! vesicare or something like that i dont have to pee every 2 seconds and feel like i empty better (most of the time)
good luck with appointment hope you find what works for you x
If you're in the UK 3 weeks isn't too long to wait but I can imagine because you're having so much pain and discomfort they would see you very quickly. So hopefully on Friday you'll know exactly what is going to happen.
Estás muy bienvenida, Judith… Estoy en Estados Unidos, y si tengo que hacerme una cirugía allí, probablemente habrá una espera de 3 meses… Normalmente estoy muy nerviosa al ir a mi ginecólogo, pero hoy mi cita es a las 13:15, hora mía, y estoy un poco emocionada por saber qué hacer. Odio la cirugía, pero soy como tú, si salgo de esto sintiéndome mejor, todo habrá valido la pena. Te mantendré informada, cariño… ABRAZOS.
Yes Carol you too let me know how you get on
Thank you so much. I just wonder what the consultant will suggest on Friday. If surgery is an option I will have to wait up to 18 weeks I think
Anyway hope your op is quick easy and comfortable
most likely will be surgery , have you tried other routes physio, pessary? etc 18 weeks seems to be the norm for surgery , my friend is waiting that for herniated disc on her back! it is madness the waiting hopefully yours wont be that long (fingers crossed)
hope it all goes well on friday!
and thank you! im trying not to stress out about it lol (tryingggg)
18 weeks is the maximum wait judith. Most areas are earlier.
Hello everyone kind enough to get involved. I went along to see consultant this morning. They gave me the option of a ring or surgery if I want it. Physio no longer feasable. I opted for a ring and it was inserted there and then. A bit uncomfortable but worth it if it works. I feel a bit achey but that awful dragging feeling has gone. Consultant says I can carry on with all normal activities includidng long country walks (6 to 7miles) It sounds too good to be true. So fingers crossed.......
I hope it works for you judith. There's no reason why it shouldn't. Fingers crossed
fingers crossed this works for you!!
I unfortunately didnt get in with them they kept falling out and they tried differant sizes in the end gave up lol
but glad it seems to be working for you x
Hi Carole How did you get on with your consultation. Mine went fine. I had option for surgery but decided to have a ring fittted. Its wonderful I feel back to normal. Hope it holds. All the best for you.
