We at MDND along with many patient advocates hear so many stories of women who are suffering from mesh complications.

Many seek mesh removal or revision surgery. Some are even feeling there might be some light at the end of the long hard road.

Here is an essay from a number of women who are nearing some resolution. You might find it incredibly optimistic.

We hope you find this a helpful resource. National News Editor, Jane Akre, began MDND with the hope of providing the latest news, information and perspective from the regulatory, industry and patient point of view, something that goes under-reported in much of the coverage of medical devices. The public is just now becoming aware that many devices do not undergo the same scrutiny as prescription drugs and are instead grandfathered in under an FDA loophole that has gone largely unchanged since the 1970s. As a result, patients become the post-market clinical trial subjects, and many suffer devastating and permanent injuries.
