Hi yes I am still reading this and glad you are beginning to see a little bit of improvement. I am down in the doldrums a bit at the moment. Look at my other posts over the last few days and you will see what a rectocele is

I have also had issues with my GP prescribing the wrong HRT product!
All of my problems started with some slightly energetic sex on 22nd Feb 2014

I should have remembered that I wasn't nineteen anymore! The next day I had soreness and bleeding when I went for a pee and a UTI was diagnosed but nothing felt the same inside me, I started to get more and more pain until eventually the PN seemed to get involved and I was in agony, could hardly walk, crippling clitoral pain etc.
Basically, I now think my whole pelvic floor is knackered and the rectocele is causing me a lot of distress as I now have a 'pouch' in my vagina and have to intervene to empty my rectum. I do not get very much actual pain anymore just a general feeling of being very uncomfortable.
I think my pudendal nerve is trapped on the right side as I need to cup my right hand under my buttock if I sit without a cushion

I think my next plan of attack is to have a pelvic floor scan at the place where MJ had hers done, see if anything can be done about the rectocele and then potentially look to going to France for the PN surgery. I have an appointment with my boss at 10.00 tomorrow morning as I am finding it increasingly difficult to go to work now - not what you want to hear, sorry! It isn't the pain causing issues anymore though it is the rectocele.
Have a chat to MJ, she really is an expert now as she didn't mind reading the scary websites. They frightened me to death, even the periphery of the sites when you want to look at cushions are horrible, as you say.
I had three nerve block injections but I don't really know if they helped and they weren't very nice either, had to go into an operating theatre and be sedated.
Keep posting!!
