So sorry that you have suffered bleeding and complications after bladder sling surgery during your hysterectomy. You should contact your health care provider as soon as possible to diagnose and treat the cause of your bleeding and pain. You may have a product liablity case against the product manufacturer of the sling, but it is dependent on what appears in your medical records. Bladder sling and pelvic mesh product liability lawsuits have been ongoing since 2011 with over 100,000 claims filed and many products have been taken off the market. If your symptoms are life-threatening, go immediately to an emergency room. Wishing the best for you.
