    I just wanted to giv eyou hugs & wish you lots of luck I think you have done amazingly well so far, hopefully they will be able to find a treatment that still enables you to BF.
    I wonder about kmn's suggestion of oestrogen supplements, have they considered / suggested this?

    A few more suggestions - what sort of specialist treats the 70 year olds with this problem? And can you arrange to see them to get their opinion?
    Is there follow up for the elderly (e.g. physiotherapy) to reduce recurrence??
    This is probably no longer the domain of a specialist obstetrician, more a gynaecological surgeon.
    If you are in Melbourne I would recommend getting an opinion from Anna Rosamilia.
