Hi Violet M
Thank you for responding. I think I will have to phone our Pensions office and see. Also, I may contact my local Member of Parliament to get his support if it comes to it.
I shall look into the disability side too. Thank you

Re: Doc thinks I've got PNE......
Hello again Kim, glad things are a bit better for you. I agree with you, I have to say that those exercises sound exactly like Kegels. Are you finding any increased pain after doing them?
