Does anyone know about this?

I just recently had surgery to put a sling on my bladder, that seems to be working out fine. However, there is an urgent concern..I just went to the OB-GYN and he said I was fine. I went for the checkup after the surgery, and because I just noticed a very unusual looking type thing when i wiped. It looks like a ball organ thing dropping out of me. It is pink flesh in color and can be moved. I told my gyn and he said it was fine, if I was having normal bowel movements, relations, and no pain or bleeding. I don't understand...WHAT is this...and why is it there now...and When will it go away. It looks totally wrong and out of place to me. Help...what should I do? Any suggestions are appreciated. T

I had an A & P repair and bladder suspension in October, 2007. After about 9 weeks and the 2 check-ups after surgery. I revisited my doctor noticing the same thing (the bulge) simular to what I had seen before surgery. I had noticed before surgery and large bulge like organ your speaking of protuding out of my vag. area. I was told it was in need of an A & P repair. That surgery I needed to support the bladder suspension I was needing. They suspended my bladder with the sling the first time when I had a hysterectomy. Eight years later I am having all this done again. Now I am noticing a smaller bulge after all these repairs. The doctor says everything is OK. I don't have any problems since the surgery. I am just not sure I am getting the straight scoop. I thought the surgery would eliminate the bulge. If you have found out anything regarding this issue let me know. I posted my question under A & P repair l/21/08. Thanks. Hope this info helps.

I think that doctors just want us to be satisfied with what they are capable of doing, even if there are better alternatives. For example, I am having rectocele, cystocele and tension free taping to resolve urinary incontinence tomorrow and my doctor will not repair my uterus which is at a stage 3 prolapse, because he claims that doctors stopped doing suspension for uterine prolapse 30 years ago. In fact there is a new technique that uses a mesh sling to repair. Obviously he has not learned the new technique and doesn't want to bother to learn. I am frustrated because the uterine prolapse pushes my vaginal wall downward and I feel I will not be normal without this repair as well. I actually have 6 children and have been living with uterine prolapse since child 3, only it is much more advanced. Any thoughts from anyone about this? My doctor is my only choice because I will be uninsured effective Sept. 30, 2009 and he listed as my PCP.
