I remember Phindile, she had the most horrible time with her mesh, she was in agony and tried so hard to get help from surgeons, I know she had a terrible time to get anyone to listen in South Africa. I am so sorry to read she has passed away, Rest in eternal peace beautiful lady 🙏🕯️

Verdict of MPs today - the MHRA is guilty as charged & in need of significant reform. Many MPs rose to speak about the failings of the Medicines & Healthcare products Regulatory Agency & medical scandals from Primados to surgical mesh, sodium valproate to its yellow card scheme.

dailyecho.co.uk/news/2480546… Baroness Merron met with mesh ‘campaigners‘ on the 17th December which included me as Action for Mesh Injured Patients. An element of what I said is here attached - to include the worrying new research from Sheffield University which identified #thermoplastic #polypropylene #mesh degrades internally 60 days post implanting and further, the mesh plastic fragments migrates to other tissues post 180 days which is just over 5 months. The mesh injured have endured catastrophic injury and appalling ‘no skills’ partial removals which has left us with migrating plastic fragments FOR DECADES This New research identifies the total abandonment of moral duty to patients by the MHRA due them not identifying this initially There was no fully informed consent REDRESS @GwynneMP @PSCommissioner @RectopexyS @SharonHodgsonMP @DHSCgovuk @AlecShelbrooke @jamesosh @RupertLowe10 @GBNEWS

The Pet Abduction Act got Royal Assent before the dissolution of Parliament. It still hasn’t quite sunk in. Nor has the unexpected @PrideOfBritain Award nomination for the voluntary work around #PetTheftReform. Teamwork, positive campaigning, the kindness of strangers, and perseverance made this happen. THANK YOU. Still work to do 🐾

ALL HANDS ON DECK! We need your help to #FREEPAULWATSON Please contact the Ministry of Justice in Copenhagen regarding the recent arrest of Captain Paul Watson in Nuuk, Greenland. Paul will be detained in Nuuk until August 15 to allow the Danish Ministry of Justice time to decide whether to extradite him to Japan on an international arrest warrant. He could face spending the rest of his life in a Japanese prison. 📢US citizens should also contact their local representatives & state senators to raise attention in the Department of State. A list of contacts and email templates available at freepaulwatson.org Should you choose to write your own message, please be respectful. We are overwhelmed and gladdened by the outpouring of support these past few days! We need your help now more than ever. #FREEPAULWATSON

Good news! 🎉 Palace Tours has decided to stop selling tickets to the cruel Running of the Bulls after hearing from @PETA and its supporters. They're the second company to do so in the last 12 months 👏👏👏 #BanBullfighting #SanFermin

ALERT: This man in New Zealand has been forced to burn millions of healthy bees because the national management agency found spores that were well below infection levels and showed no signs of disease. How does this even make sense? He has now lost over $2 MILLION. "This is what's happening in New Zealand" 🚨🚨🚨

Totally agree 💯 it is a lie, there's no reliable support, I am damaged for life - going on 20 years for me - existing not living - how can anyone give support when there is nothing to ever change what this medical device has done to me both health and quality of life, the full scale of damage is massive

Thanks Susan, this is a very good post for all to see, pure devastation to health long term, most for the rest their lives. Quality of life destroyed in all areas of life too, I just can't believe NICE guidelines would be soooo negligent to still offer this treatment. Sickening.

“New guidelines from the health watchdog NICE published today will recommend that vaginal mesh surgery can be offered again by the NHS as long as certain conditions are met.” The narrative used to soften the blow of #mesh injuries is that we suffered ‘complications’ But what were those ‘complications’??? Based on my evidence & the evidence of injured colleagues - I will try to list some… 🩸 large trocars forced through vaginal wall dragging over 40 cm of #mesh caused internal catastrophic bleeding & large undiagnosed internal heamatomas 🩸the implanting technique was ‘BLIND’ #mesh incorrectly placed - so much so it was in fact ‘Never Events’ Never mind the #woman just Carry On 🩸 laceration to #nerves such as #pudendal #genitofemoral #obturator #iliohypogastric #ilioinguinal 🩸🩸🩸Ilioinguinal , iliohypogastric & genitofemoral neuralgia are amongst the most severe forms of nerve or neuropathic pain affecting the groin 🩸 women used in SIMS trials without their knowledge or consent - crippled for life 🩸 #mesh wrongly placed found wrapped around their ureters which required major surgery to remove 🩸#mesh stuck to exterior walls of #bladder -this will eventually erode 🩸 #mesh with cancerous tumours attached - #plastic is #carcinogenic - you know - the stuff they want out of our oceans! 🩸my #mesh is misplaced stuck to the front of my pubic bones ! 🩸 guide tapes for SIMS stuffed into groin tissue instead of being trimmed 🩸#pain burning throughout the pelvis - NO ONE should be left in such pain & suffering for something “minimally invasive” - which clearly was untrue as it was EXTREMELY INVASIVE 🩸 women were told to stop moaning - it wasn’t the #mesh & were told they needed #hysterectomy - many still in child bearing age - after the hysterectomy, guess what?, they were still in #mesh pain 🩸#bladders left in retention for years due to #mesh strangulation- this caused Trigonitis & bladder wall injury It’s time that the term “complications” was removed from editorial & replaced with “catastrophic internal life altering injuries (plural) news.sky.com/story/vaginal-m…
