    Rectal Intussusception/Pelvic Floor Prolapse

    Thank you guys for responding! I'm sorry that I left out a few things out. Most of the doctors that refused to treat me didn't give a reason. I filed a complaint with Health Services Dept. In my area and it proved to be a waste of time! One 'doc' was very rude and condescending when I saw him. He told me to my face that surgery to fix 'Intuss' was expensive, invasive and no one wants to touch it! I filed a complaint against him and doc fees were waived. One doc was quoted saying...oh she has a problem...i cant help! The right side pain was due to caffeine. I was advised to cut it out of my diet and I regressed. One I got back on track, the pain went away. I must say, the doc who diagnosed the intuss/rectocele seemed very bothered during our last visit. It seemed like he was forced to say what he said. He seemed very conflicted...like he hated himself for turning me away...something wasnt right! Usually, I got good vibes from him and felt good about our doc/patient relationship. This time, not so much. He was spewing the same crap the other doc was 'A Lot of people have Intuss.' He NEVER said that before. He was all for surgery a year and half ago. I didnt have the money...found out i was pregnant at the time...so i had no choice but to wait. Only to be rejected and tossed aside! I already suffer from depression...anxiety. I had posy partum too but am over it. I saw a really good colo-rectal surgeon who listened and respected me. He put me on a mirilax/metamucil regimen for constipatio. It does help but sometimes i still need enema. He examined me fully and confirmed the intuss. He suggested a 3rd go around of testing. The test is completely humiliating but i did it. Barium is placed in your rectum...then u sit on a comode a poop it out. Doc takes pic of that. It did confirm the intuss/rectocele. He said despite the findings, he doesnt recommend surgery due to low success rate. The constipation battle has been 20 years! Ive had 2 colonoscopies! 1 abdominal laparoscopy..for uterine fibroids...endometriosis. Some endo was left. Had 2 rectocele repairs...my poor baby has been through it!
  2. Hello, I'm a new here and I can use some help! I have mild rectal intussusception and pelvic floor prolapse. I've been experiencing these problems for the past few years. Due to these issues, I have severe chronic constipation. I had hope to finally have surgery to fix the Intussusception because two doctors recommended it. Before I could have the surgery, I found out I was pregnant. I had a C-Section/Hysterectomy last January. I spent most of lat year getting rejected by doctors to help me. I felt really crappy because these so-called Colo-Rectal Surgeons just left me hanging with so little regard for me. I waited a year and a half to see the Surgeon who diagnosed me with Rectocele/Intussusception, only for him to say NO to surgery!! At the time of my visit, I was experiencing right side pain. I This caused him to pause on treating me. I found out the next day that he wouldn't perform surgery on me even if the side pain was gone, eventhough he said just the opposite!!! I felt abandoned and it hurt so much! I'm married and it's screwing up our intimacy something awful! The prolapse prevented us from being intimate vaginally for a few months. We just started being intimate but the issues are still a problem. Can anybody help me with these problems?Do kegels work for pelvic floor problems? How can I fix this Intussusception? Im 40 and lack energy for my 1 year old. I need HELP!!
