The US Drug Watchdog intends to dramatically grow their national initiative focused on helping women recipients of a failed transvaginal mesh, also known as a sling, because there could easily be thousands of victims. Just to be clear on the scope and potential size of transvaginal mesh failures, according to the New York Times, "In 2010, about 185,000 US women underwent procedures in which mesh was implanted vaginally to treat urinary incontinence." The US Drug Watchdog says, "Transvaginal mesh or Bladder Sling failure occurs when the mesh fails to bind to a woman's pelvic tissues. As a consequence of this, the body rejects the mesh that has been sewn into it. As a result, the transvaginal mesh may start to poke its way through the vaginal wall and protrude out of the vaginal tissue. This complication is more commonly referred to as erosion. Erosion may result in extreme pain, infection, bleeding, vaginal discharge, and no possibility for sexual intercourse." The US Drug Watchdog's national initiative is designed to assist any women in the US, who is a victim of a transvaginal mesh, or bladder sling failure, and the group will provide all women victims with the specific contacts of national caliber attorneys-who are all women. For more information women, who are now victims of a transvaginal mesh failure are urged to call the US Drug Watchdog anytime at 8660714-6466. http://USDrugWatchdog.Com
The US Drug Watchdog is indicating symptoms of a transvaginal mesh/Sling implant failure may include:
The US Drug Watchdog says, "One of the biggest problems we have with respect to our failed medical device or recalled drug initiative work is the average US consumer never hears about a drug recall or failures involving medical devices like a transvaginal mesh failure. If you have a friend, or loved one who is a recipient of a transvaginal mesh product that has already failed or is showing symptoms of a failure, please have them call us at 866-714-6466. We want to make certain all women, who are transvaginal mesh failure victims get to the best possible attorneys, to ensure they get the best possible compensation for their ordeal, and we will do our absolute best to make certain all of the attorneys are women." http://USDrugWatchdog.Com
