I went to my 3rd uro appt since having trouble with my bladder. They have been keeping me on the meds (elavil,elmiron, and detrol LA) and having me do kegal exercises. They are saying that I have a prolapsed bladder. I am not surprised, because I had a prolapsed uterus and that is why I had my hysterectomy. The gyno then said that I probably would eventually have the prolapsed bladder too. It has been over 10 years since I have had a hysterectomy. They want me to continue with the kegals to try and build up my bladder and uretha. We will see what happens. I will find out at my next appt in Jan. :rolleyes:

Don't you wish doctors felt the same sense of urgency as their patients? Seems like a long time to wait. But, if the exercises do help, maybe it will have been worth it. Surgery seems like such a serious undertaking, that I would explore all options before going through it. I hope you find relief soon!!
