You would think. My husband also heard him say that and he always thought he was wrong just b/c of what you explained. He looked inside but never said anything about prolapse except he wanted me to have defogram to see extent of prolapse before opening me up. Never discussed the results with me. His assistant had to meet with me morning of surgery. Of course I didn't know there was a possiblity I did not need surgery. Not to say that if I had not done surgery that I would of ended up having bowel obstruction again but might should of waited to see. I just thank God that the surgery went good and as far as I know has not caused more problems. He had said he was going to use mesh so when heard about all the mesh problems I called and he said he didn't use it. I have him on tape but unfortunately player is broken. I know he didn't like you to ask him questions and when I did none of them were significant. Go figure! Thats what my husband and I thought. Thanks Jan
