In this video chronicling my pelvic organ prolapse repair, I describe pain from overdoing it, trying to reduce my use of narcotic pain medication, and struggles with my suprapubic catheter. I also express concerns with not knowing “what’s normal” with pain and sensations, and discuss some things I did to manage my recovery.

AMAZON LINK TO MY FAVORITE LEGGINGS: I recommend the “plus size” for anyone larger than a size 4. They’re much more stretchy and comfortable.
