TVT Messed up Mesh (TVT Mum)

"Listen to your hearts as well as your minds to know we are all brothers and sisters as one energy and life force together" by Lorraine Evans.

TVT Mum is a non profit charity organization to give help and support to both men and woman who are experiencing severe health problems and complications arising from the medical device TVT Sling and any other medical device using surgical polypropylene synthetic mesh for hernia's, prolapse, stress incontinence and bladder and bowel disorders.

We are currently doing our own research on this growing health problem throughout the UK with the help from patients who are suffering complications associated with the polypropylene mesh used in medical devices and other surgeries. We do our research from Internet Based reliable and true articles involving a tremendous amount of reading tirelessly to educate ourselves and with the help from our consultants and surgeons as one quote shows below..

At this present time we do our own extensive research on this area as I was told from a Medical Professional and on good authority "the medical profession is actually very alert to surgical complications and sadly, investment in research into the area is not regarded as a priority by medical research funding bodies, which seriously hampers our ability to get a true handle on the situation".

We want to encourage Doctor's, Consultants in Urology and Gynaecology, Governing Bodies Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) and The National Institute of Clinical Excellence (NICE) to recognise we are all suffering and we need their support and help. Our aim also is to include enlisting the help from Action Against Medical Accidents (AvMA) and any other reliable organizations that can help all who are suffering and have no-where else to turn to as far as we can see for help.

Everyone who has approached the TVT Mum website has come to seek help and support to find the right consultants, surgeons and counsellors to help them through this difficult time. We also understand and can see this is now a growing health problem and needs urgent attention.
