wow that is a shocking amount of time.

I have recently joined a private health care scheme at work, not sure if you can claim immediately or not - really don't know where I stand, but I am going to find out. even if it means taking out a bank loan and going private , I really don't feel I can live like this and it is clear many ladies are suffering the same

Meh - thanks! To be honest both the two midwives and doctor I saw were so blasé about it I figured I couldn't make a fuss. Sad

My GP seems less concerned about this, I just took a five min break from the office to phone the GP to check if she had sent my referral and she hasn't even sent it yet!

I'm really horrified that this is treated with such a relaxed attitude, yes I know it is not life threatening but the discomfort and mental anguish it can bring, really puts the brakes on your life. When I am hearing stories of ladies having to wait 3 months even to have an initial meeting with a Gyno, it literally brings me to tears, that in three months I may well be no further forward in sorting this out, than I am today

All this upset and discomfort and the referral is sitting on someone's bloody desk...

I am going to test out my work health scheme see if it will be quicker route than going through the NHS. i've only recently joined it though so not sure where I stand

Does anyone have any tips to deal with this feeling of discomfort bulging and burning?? Clearly this is not going to be a quick fix so I need to kind of make peace with this and try to be as comfortable as I can for now or I will drive myself mad. does anyone get a strange vibrating / buzzing feeling since being diagnosed with bladder prolapse

I am a very anxious type of person as it is, and was already on meds for it, and this is just making my anxiety so much worse

Hi there, can I ask, anyone that has had a bladder prolapse surgery, did it involve an overnight stay?

apparently my healthcare will cover me for it, as long as it does not include overnight stay - they advise asking the consultant to get me in first surgery 0730am and being on target to leave that evening

what do you all think, ladies that have had this surgery?
