I am very active and was looking forward to my sling surgery so I could get back to running and exercising without wearing big pads. My surgery was on June 18 by a well-respected UroGynecologist in Boston. Now, 1 month later, I have worse problems then before. I leak continually and when I tried to run for the first time today I soaked my pad. I am beyond disappointed and discouraged because I took 1 month off from work and have not been able to enjoy Summer with my children because I couldn't be active while I healed. It was very frustrating not being able to exercise when that is such an important part of my life (it's actually my career.) I have called the doctor's office and they tell me to wait, but so far, not impressed. I would urge anyone considering this to be aware that it may NOT be the magic bullet. I was hoping to not wear pads anymore but obviously I will need to invest in them even more now.
