My sister is suffering from a tvt bladder sling surgery.she has been refused a translabial ultrasound and passed around. what can i do?

Be persistent: It is possible to get help for pain or problems relating to a bladder sling. Many women get "passed around" before they get helped. This can be very frustrating. You need to see someone with a lot of experience taking care of women with mesh complications to determine if your problems are from the sling and to help decide on the best course of action.
