That is really interesting Yael in regards to the 'other' areas. I also wondered if my history in the other department may show that I have a weakness or susceptability (sp?) in general.

I am feeling a bit better now. I called around to my OB, my GP and the maternity unit, but none of them would see me. In the end I went up to emergency & saw a Dr there. She said she thought I may have an infection, but TBH I think that was just because she wanted to 'diagnose' something & get me outta there. I asked her what the heaviness was & what I could see, and she said I have a prolapse of the vaginal wall, but said it in a way as though that is perfectly normal & nothing to worry about. ??
