Too many still struggling to get help for pelvic mesh problems
Although vaginal mesh devices and tapes can be such small things in size, the impact they can have when something goes wrong can be monumental. The scandal over pelvic mesh issues has been ongoing for many years, and affects thousands of women worldwide. Still, some women are struggling to get help when they are presenting problems. In the past, some women have been dismissed when they presented symptoms and concerns to doctors, and others have been unable to get the specialist help they require.
Given how catastrophic the complications of vaginal mesh gone wrong can be, it is clear that much more needs to be done to make sure women are supported when they are having problems. These devices are intended to be permanent. If something goes wrong with them, it can be impossible to remove them fully in some cases. This can leave some women with problems for the rest of their lives. The fact that people are still struggling to get help – despite how serious the complications can be – is a real cause for concern.
What we can do for those affected by vaginal mesh
It is difficult knowing that some patients are still struggling to get help for pelvic mesh problems. As a law firm, we cannot solve all the problems, nor can we turn back the clock. There are some things we can do for some of the patients that we can help.
If a patient is suffering pain, problems and complications arising from vaginal mesh as a result of negligence, that is where we could help. We can use the law to allow a patient to access some form of justice for what they have gone through by pursuing a medical negligence claim for compensation. There can be a number of ways in which a person could be eligible to pursue a legal case, such as a lack of informed consent about the extent of risks not being properly explained, or where better alternatives should have been explored. Identifying negligence is something that we have to look at on a case-by-case basis, and it is ultimately about assessing and identifying if you have been let down.
Again, we cannot turn back the clock and, unfortunately, we cannot help everybody. But for those we can help, a legal case for compensation can allow a victim to receive damages for the pain, suffering and loss of amenity they endure. We can also pursue losses and expenses claims which can cover things such as lost earnings for time off work, which could last until retirement, given the extent of the problems some women can have. We may be able to look at whether we can explore private surgery as part of a case if this is going to help you, and private treatment as well.
For eligible clients, we can represent victims on a No Win, No Fee basis to allow you access to justice without the worry about what happens if the case does not succeed.
