Marie Steele submission of 2 July 2021

PE1865/AA - Suspend all surgical mesh and fixation devices

I have suffered pain due to having a Tension-free Vaginal Tape Obturator (TVTO) with mesh from 2009 for stress incontinence. I was not fully informed of the damage this could cause. I had so many urine infections after this was inserted. I have suffered in pain for 11 years.

No one listens or understands the pain. I have just received a letter to attend counselling for mesh. Counselling isn't gonna take my pain away or give me a better quality of life. I need this poison removed from my body.

Also, I'd like to mention the first petition “PE1517: Polypropylene Mesh Medical Devices” and how, in my view, the government have not followed through on recommendations suggested to them by various bodies involved in the mesh scandal.
