The 7 February 2012, age 34, was the last time I had an orgasm. It was the night before a hip surgery. It's been over 13 years since this man crushed my clitoris against my pubic bone with a barbaric device called a #PerinealPost. It's an excruciating loss, which still makes me cry. I went under the knife for an 'elective' non-urgent #HipArthroscopy to improve back pain. It was sold to me as a 'simple' key-hole hip surgery. Unknown to me, during the #InformedConsent process, my surgeon made the purposeful choice to deny me details of a serious known risk. HE knew the #PerinealPost would be used between my legs as traction to open up my hip joint, and HE knew its use was known to cause intimate crush injury and nerve damage, yet HE decided I didn't need to know this vital information pre-hip surgery. HE was happy to risk MY sexual function WITHOUT MY consent. I detest this man. I detest him, not only for the medical assault on my body, because, let's be honest here, that's what it is, but also because of his complete disregard for his actions. There has been no accountability, only excuses, lies, and pathetic, cowardly cover-up. To add insult to devastating injury, during my complaint, he gloated that intimate crush injury was a known risk and had the utter gall to call the destruction of my sexual future 'misfortunate.'  The loss of my sexual function was not 'misfortunate' it was a callous decision by him to proceed WITHOUT MY consent. I would NEVER have risked my sexual function, had I been made aware of the risk. I was not given a choice. I did NOT consent.  I feel assaulted. I feel violated. I can't tell you how sick to the pit of my stomach it makes me feel, when the medical world insists #InformedConsent is a legal requirement, yet they flout it willy nilly, harming patients as they go without repercussion. All the medical bodies supposedly there to protect the patient and enforce legal requirements don't. They just don't. I am one of countess patients denied #InformedConsent, denied vital details of serious known risk and needlessly harmed. We were all blindsided. We all trusted the medical professional sat there in front of us. We all believed we were in the best hands. Stand with us UK 🇬🇧💪 Protect yourself, and those you love from needless harm. Please take a moment to sign and share this petition to make #InformedConsent mandatory: petition.parliament.uk/petit…✍️🇬🇧 Without enforcement, there is no deterrent to cause needless harm. #DeniedInformedConsent  #NeedlesslyHarmed #PerinealPost #Mesh #Primodos #BloodContamination #PSSD #SodiumValproate #Vaccines #Labiaplasties #Hysteroscopy #AssistedSuicide...the list goes on. #ForAllHarmedPatients  #ToPreventFutureHarm  #BupaFail #THISisBupaHealth #NHSfail @wesstreeting @JuliaCumberlege @EstherMcVey1 @gmcuk @MHRAgovuk @HCAHospitalsUK @DHSCgovuk @CareQualityComm @ISCAS_UK @NHSEngland
