A bit confused??HELP!

Body: 

Okay forgive me but I'm a bit confused. I had a vaginal hysterectomy 3 years ago..(have one ovary)...Had Bladder Surgery in March..which went great..and it felt so wonderful not to be pushing up my bladder at the end of every day.....now...out of the clear blue..I have rectocele........so will the DVD help my rectocele? My GYN tells me he can fix it by doing surgery...I prefer to try another method...??? I am so active and this really stinks....):

Hi
Wow that is something! I read about that happening, after one organ is removed the others shift and when one is attached to a position then it happens with another. Maybe they should have attached them all at the time of your hysterectomy? I know Christine is against most of these procedures she had it happen to her. So she is speaking from experience and education.
I have just been diagnosed with cystocle. I was thinking of getting my bladder fixed but read that they end up fixing everything later because thing will slid into the space left from the moved organ. So discouraging. I too am very active. I thought this was something that happened to obese women. I'm not even over weight.

If you get her book or video it can clear things up. How old are you? Are you pre or post menapausal? I know we're not alone with this. I think women need to speak up about this.

Keep smiling,

Hi Sarah:
Thanks for responding...I am 54.....size 6! Have always exercised ..stopped doing any aerobids because of the impact...and jumping...so I'm doing alot of latin dancing and Zumba classes...I am thinking of now starting Yoga....What do you mean by "clear things up? ....I'm wondering if it's too far gone to help....When I had my bladder surgery I was regretting not having it done sooner.........):

HI Noodles,
Now i don't have much to offer on this but want you to know it's being read! think we need to wait for more expert opinions to chime in here. problem is how the body without the uterus responds to the excercises--have you read through the hysterectomy forum? i remember christine being unsure about some of the excercises that are more vigorous in the pelvis being good for women who had had hysterectomies, but i can't remember the details--and i imagine it's a small portion of the dvd.... so read through the forum and you will get more info. have you started the posture? that in itself can help a lot...also how is your diet? few of us are experimenting with anti inflammatory diet (but inflammatory into search, will come up with threads) that has definately helped my cystocele a ton. rectocele is more stubborn, but we are going to get there ;-)

Hi,
We are about the same age and size. I too am going to do yoga. I still have my weight class but I'm not doing the bouncing around and certain floor excercise. What I meant was the info she has will give you the whole picture with plenty of details.

Keep smiling,
Sarah
