I have had the pressure tests it felt really weird, like I needed to go to the toilet. I am waiting on my appointment for my ultrasound. Then I think I have got to go and see my consultant again to see what can be done. I feel a little relieved that I have had some test done.

A bit like mine then. Are they going to do pressure tests at the same time as the ultra sound? This is how they found my pressure was very low thats why I can't hold on but everything else was ok no rips etc. Hope you haven't got to wait too long. Have they said what they may do to fix it?

I had 4 test done today a test for my muscles and nerves, my nerves and inner muscles are all working fine it is my outer muscles that are week. I am now waiting on my appointment for the ultrasound, they said today that they can see the muscles and can then tell if they are week and damaged or week and not damaged.

Hi did she do any tests? Mine started after having ds.

I have had to fill in a questionaire and 1 question was when did it start, but I cant remember, I think it was after I had DS but I can only remembering the need to rush the loo when I was pregnant with DD.

I know what you mean they take ages and then they don't seam to do anything. Don't know how long I have now got to wait for this treatment but they said he refered me already so he must have done it in Dec when he got my results back from other tests so that would be 6 months already. We will just poo our pants in the mean time like it's no big deal. May just have to send him my poo every time and see how fast the appointments come through then?
Hope it comes soon.

Hi, I had the electric stuff like a little bullet that send pulsses up your bum at the same time you try. Didn't work for me

Went to hospital today sat for 2 hours past my appointment time
then one of his training docs came in told her that I am just the same. Se went out to talk to my doc then came in and said he has already sent of for me to have electric treatment. Told her I have alreadt had this anout 1 1/2 years ago. Well she went and came back again and said that this is different and the do it by putting needles up your bum
don't know how they can do that with electric.We are ttc our 2nd so don't think I can have that test if pg. They have said there is no point operating if want another baby as it wont be as good. and may have to have a c section if get to bad. We just said that we wasn't going to let my bum put us off having another baby as long as they can sort it out after.
How are you?

hello ladies, havent been on for a bit, how is everyone doing? well i have finished my physio and guess what - didnt work! i have now been referred to another hospital as they have electronic exercisers but they wont do it if there is a chance i might fall pregnant. now i have to decide whether to wait to start trying again or leave it and suffer the consequences. does anyone know if i do have the extra physio and it works, if i have another baby could i have problems again? i dont want to go through it all if i have to do it again after having another baby

Well had to rush again this moring only just got there.
so fed up with it now as can't see an end27/5/08 19:15
the consultant told me if it doesnt get better i will have to have a c-section which is a shame but the thing i'm worried about most is my bowel being even weaker with the weight pushing down on it x

We have been ttc our 2nd for about 7 months. They do tend to say they will not operate until you have completed your family so didn't want to wait but I am also worried how it will affect me. One person I did see said I may have to have a c section but another said I would be ok for a normal birth.

they dont care, its not life threatening so they dont think its important, i dont think they realise just how awful and embarrasing it is. i want to start trying for another baby soon and i'm terrified how bad it will get when i'm pregnant x
23/5/08 19:03
You would think it would save them money getting it sorted fast and not taking this long
Fine I have had physio and test but it has been 26 months and still the same as when I gave birth.
Realy getting me down now as it's like they don't care.





I have had my appointment through for this neurostimulation treatment for tuesday but have changed it as I am away for 2 weeks after. I have got to have 12 treatments and then go back and see the hospital to see how oftern need top ups.
Only problem is that we are ttc2 and they have said we can't get pregnant when having this treatment so will have to stop for 3 months
dont know what to do realy.
