Today I am 16 week post-partum and my life totally change after the day I had give delivered. I choose irene chua as my gynae at the first place as I heard a lot of good review of her although her charges is on the high side (which she no longer provide package for consult and scanning) so I'm thinking to give it a try. After the first visit with her, I felt she alway in a rush, usually consultation only took 5 mins for everything to be done, most probably she have lot of patients waiting outside. And it alway cost me between sgd300-400 for each visit for consultation + ultrasound scanning + routine check + Saturday surcharge + supplements. To me as long my baby is healthy, I'm OK with everything, including the waiting time and difficulty of getting appointment.
Finally, today I'm decided to voice out as this is totally unacceptable. I am so sad that I was told to have recto viginal fistula (a passage /hole link from rectum to vigina which my gynae neglected to stitch back after my normal delivery) which mean every time I'm having bowel movement, my stool is coming out from 2 hole, not only that I spend more time in toilet to clean inside my vigina also from front to back of my anal each time after pass motion. I also suffer constant pain and sore on my perinuem Everday (area between vigina and anal also the part that had cut during my labor) and then, it affected my daily life which I had stool leaking from the fistula without my knowledge. So I got to wear panty liner everyday. This is very embarrassing to share but this had affecting my daily life and my work.
At first, 2 week my post delivery I went back to my gynae check up, she told me this is infection, thus she prescribed me antibiotics and anti swelling to see if that's improvement. 3 week my post delivery I went back again, she told me the tear is still raw and not healing well then she apply cream for me. 12 week post delivery I went back again, same she told me infection and prescribed me medication. Until yesterday, I went to see another gynae, who was introduced by my girl friend name Dolly wee, a very old and experience gynae, she point out my condition is having recto viginal fistula. Today I went back to irene chua, she admitted it that's the hole she never stitch up properly, she advise me to go for repair surgery. Mean I have to go through 4 degree cut (cut involved the vaginal tissue, perineal skin, and perineal muscles that extends into the anal sphincter and the tissue underneath it)
and stitch all over again. And one thing unreasonable, she still ask for charges for repair surgery. I felt this is ridiculous. We paid so much for her prenatal check up and delivery fees as I believe in her professional skill but end up she did not did a good job and still I got to pay again to repeat the same downtime? That's torturing! Then who is going to b responsible for the problem im facing everyday? It's not only affected my work as I suppose to get back to work as my maternity is due, and it even affecting my sex life with my hubby. We don't even able to make it as before intercourse my perinuem part is pain like hell.
This is totally unacceptable for me but that's the only way to repair. I'm feeling so depressed that this affected my daily life. Now I do not know should I get back to irene chua to get the surgery done? Coz I don't feel security and confidence toward her skill anymore. Or I should seek for other gynae who can repair my problem, recto viginal fistula ( RVF). Any mommy out there able to help me? Thank you
