Hi Steph, My goodness, you have all three cele's! Well, your rectocele is the problem that's causing the incontinence.Your GI doc, or even Gyno should've told you that. That puzzles me. Since the rectocele is causing incontinence, it need's to be fixed surgically. It is not a complicated high risk surgery, and it's success rate is nearly 100%. I have never perform- ed it myself. I'm a Math Professor working in engineering science. However, I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express. But seriously, you should ask Letty who responded to your post , since she's actually had the procedure, and it was suc- cessful. I'm sure she can fill you in on the details. The other two cele's don't typically need surgery,they can be treated by treated by methods such as Kegel excer- cises. As for your sigmoid colon,since it's not causing you real bad C, you shouldn't need it chopped.That kind of surgery could lead to adhesions and other subsequent prob- lems. Another thing that sounds anomalus is that most women get these cele's shortly after childbirth. I checked your profile and that's been 17 years for you. So these cele's developing now is rather unusual. Well, that's about all I can tell you. Don't worry about the rectocele surgery, I'm sure Letty will tell you that it's not that big a deal. I wish you the best!!! -Bob
