Do I need surgery for stress incontinence after hysterectomy at 63, does AMKA cover it?
I have had lots of gynaecological operations over the years and a total hysterectomy when I was 34. At the moment I am 63 and have stress incontinence. I wake up wet, I found urine running down my legs, I leak hugely if I cough or laugh. I have tried betmiga, kegel, exercises. I have no quality of life. Do I need surgery, will AMKA cover me
