Hello,
I am scheduled to have surgery for bladder (stress urinary incontinence) on Aug. 5th. I have suffered thru with incont. for about 4 yrs. Detrol LA, Antibiotics, Flomax, poise pads (from which I get "diaper rash", etc. I've been to 2 different urologists who don't concur on actual cause of my "problem", Its SLE, its your SJS, your fibro, meds cocktail and on and on. I was taken off the flomax by the new uro, which has helped the urgency issue. After much testing there are things that can be done while others are something I just have to live with...
The surgery is to implant a Lynx urethal sling. (its like a hammock permanently installed to lift the neck of the ureter to help prevent leakage. From the research I've done and info given by the doctor I've given the go for the surgery. Just wondering if anyone has had this procedure and if its helped?
Any info helps,
Michelle
