My story

Body: 

Hi,
I am so glad that I found this site. I have bone marrow cancer and because of this I have a giant spleen. I am 58 yrs old and have been living with this condition for 8 yrs. I have been treated allopathically,but have used as much natural medicine as possible.I have had 3 vaginal births,2 of which were 2 days in labor. I am sure that at 18 I was not aware of anything except the pain of the first birth. Last year along with everthing else happening to my body,I noticed the cystocele pushing out of my body. I was fitted for a pessary, given trimosan,(researching trimosan is how I found this site,thank you very much!)and told to use the trimosan 3 times weekly. I ended up with a horrible, itchy,messy discharge. I removed the pessary after 2 mos. and am scheduled to revisit my Dr. She said that surgery was not an option for me and that maybe using the tri more often would help. It is so hard to get a Dr. to see that their meds might be making the problem worse. I wil be purchasing the recommended books here and look forward to future posts. Nonnie

You know who you would like to talk to is Grandma Joy. I have not seen here around here but maybe she will see your post and respond.
I think you will enjoy the book. Many women here manage a cystocele without a pessary- but you also might like to look into the wholewoman balms- for good lubrication with the pessary.
