PT for pelvic floor Update
I promised to keep some of you updated on the pelvic flloor PT I am doing for rectocele and cystocele I got from hyst.
I have gone 2 time in the last 3 weeks and since 2 weeks ago the resting strength of the muscles has increase 300%. I am doing exercises 3 times a day. It has greatly improved the area around my bladder and what we are doing in the next two weeks will focus on the rectocele. She has limited the time I can go back to work (gee, I am so sad about that) for the next month. I can feel a difference! She is sure we can fix all this without surgery. I was not sure but I am beginning to believe. I am very strict about doing the exercises. They are not that difficult at all for what they seem to be doing.
Anyone interested in more info on a PT near them let me know as I have a web site for where they are located across the country.
I will also keep posting as I progress. If we can avoid surgery so much the better!

PT for pelvic floor Update
So far, so good for me, but thank you for putting this info out there. I know there are many sisters who might benefit. I am just hoping that everything in the sex department works once I am released in a couple weeks.

Kathy
Thanks for sharing with us. I have always wondered about this and if it would be helpful for more women if it were made available to more. I am intrigued to see how you do with all this. Thank you for the update.

I will double check it and ask her about you next week. They opened a new office and she was running around like a maniac when I saw her!

I completely understand I'm not in a rush and figured she's probably busy...just didn't know if I might've got the email wrong or any number of things (on my part) She sounds really nice and dedicated. I'm so happy you found such a winner and that it's working for you
