I have very painful diastasis recti and am getting backache now as my tummy muscles are too weak to support my back. They first split 7 years ago when I had my first baby. I have since had another baby who is now 4. I have been to see 2 NHS consultants who have been quite useless. The first one sent me to a physio who taught me some excercises which were quite ineffective. I went back to the doctors who sent me to see another consultant who said he wasn't surprised the excercises didn't work as I did have any muscles to knit together as they had frayed. I asked about the surgery and he was absolutely no use whatsoever saying that he had never heard of it. Has anyone had the surgery and did it help? I can't imagine being in this amount of discomfort for the rest of my life. Thanks
