@Jeremy_Hunt when you have been implanted with plastic that wrecks your life then you can suggest it is a safe procedure. I’m one of thousands who thought it was great until it poisoned and maimed us. Get real and listen @theresa_may @MeshCampaign @OwenSmith_MP

Dear @RCObsGyn you assured us at the recent #mesh APPG meeting with MPs that surgeons properly warn women of vaginal/pelvic mesh implant risk. This from 2 days ago We see this every week on #Slingthemesh @OwenSmith_MP @EmmaHardyMP @SharonHodgsonMP @FibroidNetwork @carlheneghan

@MeshCampaign @stematthews94 @KenZeroHarm @FibroidNetwork @Meshgirlni @EmmaHardyMP @SWEMeshSupport @icsoffice @RCObsGyn I had a “sling” like a “hammock” -wasn’t told it was mesh that grew into or around your tissue & nerves. Dress it up however they want mesh is mesh & there are far more of us injured than they’ll ever admit to! 😡

We know exactly what we are talking about #mesh tapes aka slings for incontinence have just as serious consequences (NHS hospital admissions data says 10%) as #mesh for #prolapse (PROSPECT says 12%) @waelagur @VictoriaLIVE @stematthews94 @carlheneghan

Many women benefit from the use of vaginal mesh and they should have a choice, surgeons say.

@MHRAgovuk automatons repeat the same old benefits/risk mantra while relying on ineffective yellow card reporting scheme, and completely ignoring mounting body of evidence showing high complication and failure rates for all types of #mesh.

TAPE IS #MESH @BBCNews @TulipMazumdar In hospital coding an #incontinence sling is called "Introduction of a tension free vaginal tape" which is why @RCObsGyn think they can get away with saying tape is not mesh = not giving fully informed consent

Australian & New Zealand TGA Govt Medical Device Regulators removes 43 synthetic #Mesh devices from the Market as Benefits do not outweigh the Risks. #UK #MHRA did its own review in 2017 & disagrees despite, missing UK data & reported damage @MeshCampaign

Dear #NHS #MHRA @JackieDP @RCObsGyn #BSUG #BAUS @MHRAdevices #NHSEngland @Jeremy_Hunt LOOK! #mesh is a global problem It is NOT about bad surgery It is about a product not fit for purpose @WedlakeBell @johnelworthy @SteveBarclay

Great news for @MeshCampaign #mesh
https://t.co/MCoStYKVCq… But it only mentions banning mesh for prolapse, not SUI which is as bad.
