Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Vaginal Mesh Implants: Discussion

Ms Terri Martin:

Many ladies have been attending doctors, GPs and everything over the years, and some have been put on nerve stimulant drugs and everything, only to be told it is a problem of their mind and not a pain problem. We have stressed that it was a pain problem. It is because they simply do not know the solutions. These effects of this on all bodies include evidence for autoimmune diseases, pain and other things. It has been researched, and the more it has been researched the more things have been shown. There are blood disorders and 101 different case scenarios. It just destroys the body internally.
