Mesh Problems

Disabled at age 40 by a transvaginal mesh midurethral sling. I advocate for other mesh-injured people ❤️

The Harmacist Strikes Again!

“MD here; had my first cancellation of a hydrocodone script for a patient. Called him Walmart pharmacist. He stated I can’t write for more than seven days every six hours unless I sent him clinical paperwork. I explained the patient’s need and he canceled the script”

The DPF Forum is lobbying to end this madness!

THE THREE FORCES OF DESTRUCTION: PAST THE WORD "TOXINS." Saying "toxins leaching" only scratches the surface of why the body breaks down. It isn't just a chemical leak; it is a full-body mechanical and biological assault driven by three distinct forces:

[Janis Kay Urban @JanUrban12]

M*ESH and The Permanent Cellular Damage (The Fortress): The permanent foreign body reaction completely exhausts the immune system and alters the cellular environment. It acts as a scaffold for impenetrable bi0film fortresses where bacteria tunnel deep inside cell walls, shielding themselves from antibiotics and fueling chronic, recurring infections. #KnowWhatYouDontKnow

🚨Today was the deadline set by Patient Safety Commissioner Prof Henrietta Hughes. It didn’t happen.

🔶She used her statutory powers to ask the Government for specific information on the Hughes Report redress process, not a final yes/no decision on compensation.

🔶She requested details on internal & cross-government discussions, actions taken so far, outstanding steps before Ministers can decide on redress, and a clear timetable for a full response.

🔶On 6 July, in answer to a Parliamentary question, the Department of Health & Social Care stated they would “provide any information required to support a timely response.”

🔶 Sadly as of this evening the actual deadline, no information has been published.

🔶This silence, on the eve of Parliament breaking for summer recess, is the latest chapter in decades of battles for candour and accountability that have left thousands of mesh-injured women in permanent pain, without proper care, financially ruined, and too often suicidal.

🔶We have shown the Government already runs a structured, tariff-based, non-adversarial system for complex pelvic trauma (the Armed Forces Compensation Scheme).

🔶 “Complexity” is not the barrier.

🚨Patients deserve transparency. Today proved nothing has changed.

Informed consent is the legal and ethical requirement that a physician must fully educate a patient about the risks, benefits, and alternatives of a medical procedure before the patient agrees to it. Were You Informed?

[Louise White @LouiseWhitemesh]

There's no end to the harm inflicted on #PelvicMesh patients
Injured due to MHRA & NICE's sloppy licencing & surveillance
Gaslighted by implanting consultants
Lied to by explanting consultants who told patients they'd had a full removal when they hadn't
Scammed seeking justice🔽

[Louise White @LouiseWhitemesh]

Andy Burnham said Hillsborough Law opens the door to justice for mesh and sodium valproate victims

In 2014 he called #MeshInjuries “shocking” & “heart-breaking”

We have all waited far too long

Redress for all now

The Medical Mesh Scandal Ruining Women's Lives https://t.co/xkmu4vUhT6 via @YouTube

[Janis Kay Urban @JanUrban12]

Three decades ago the world just watched a global health crisis unfold, as pre-packaged plastic kits cleared in '96 and '02 industrialized women's health for corporate profit. Worldwide millions of women were embedded with the synthetic plastic, 100,000's have been permanently harmed.

[Louise White @LouiseWhitemesh]

Did I give informed consent if
I didn't know the device hadn't been tested
Nor the implant was permanent
That the injury (complication) rates were wrong 1-3% v 10-15%
The gold standard award should be for one of the worst devices made
& the 20m quick fix would cause lifelong pain

[Janis Kay Urban @JanUrban12]

Justice? Eyes made Quiet by Greed. Global settlements didn't just resolve a legal dispute; they acted as a non-disclosure shield that immunizes an entire global hierarchy. This systematic cleanup protects the manufacturers from public discovery, shields corporate stakeholders' profits, hides flawed institutional research, and insulates the doctors and hospitals who implanted these devices from malpractice accountability. It even clears the books for the lawyers, legislators, and governments who allowed the regulatory failures to happen in the first place. It is a total institutional lockdown that has left the world blind to one of the worst systemic atrocities against women in modern history.

“I have days that are manageable but not close to pain-free. This makes it impossible to rate my pain—I have no 1 on my scale… life exists in a constant state of pain. My body is constantly hurting. When asked to describe it—I cannot.” https://t.co/gltyTYWV5P #PainAwarenessMonth

[Janis Kay Urban @JanUrban12]

The world can sit silent. I will not. To say nothing, to do nothing, stops nothing. Alone we are STRONG. Together we are STRONGER. We are survivors breaking a 30-year wall of silence regarding the hidden dangers and damage of untested, permanent pl@stic implants. R U with me?💪

A new documentary on the #Mesh scandal premieres Thurs 1 Oct. We've supported an award-winning international team of female filmmakers examining the flawed evidence, weak regulation and patient safety failures that harmed women globally. Subscribe & watch https://t.co/RP7GRYWhPS

With love to the family & friends of this young man who couldn't live with injuries from a #SugicalMesh implant.
Are deaths & injuries to so many just viewed as disposable collateral damage? Are the 10-15% #MeshInjured patients not sufficiently significant in your statistics?

[Sling the Mesh @MeshCampaign]

💔🇫🇷 Our thoughts are with the family and friends of French actor/ director Arnaud Dennis who could no longer with live with the unbearable pain & autoimmune diseases following #hernia #mesh surgery in 2023.
The 43 year old died today in a Belgium euthanasia clinic.

'I can no longer leave my apartment, I no longer have a social life, I have no life at all anymore. Nothing remains that constitutes the dignity of a human life. And it's getting worse. I live like a cancer patient in the end stage. The doctors have nothing more to offer me,' he told the newspaper in early 2026."

Extended Research is needed - Sheffield University identified degradation and migration and more recently BJUI Compass identified systemic dysregulation .

This tragedy identifies the utter life devastation caused by polypropylene implants and urgent research is needed
