Anyone had one?

I've had a hysterectomy (20yrs ago) and an anterior repair in 2008.  However after a bout of UTIs, my GP thought it may be due to the prolapse coming back and referred me to a gynaecologist.  He confirmed I have a vaginal prolapse.  I was booked in to have a op last week, but it was cancelled as I had a dental abscess and the anaesthetist thought it might be risky. 

Surgeon wants to rearrange, but I'm now getting cold feet .  I'm probably being silly, but I'm having second thoughts (is it worth it/will it last? kinda thing).  It'll be the same recovery period as a hysterectomy  . 

Any thoughts?

   get the dental problem sorted first. That lessens the risk of any infection spreading.

You may find that you feel better about the repair once the teeth are better.  I take it that your UTIs were tested for bacteria?  Would HRT help at all if you want to postpone surgery?
