A 38-year-old woman in Scotland who told doctors she was suffering from shaking, incontinence and severe weight loss turned out to have a intimacy gadget stuck inside her vaginathat had been there for 10 years, according to an article published in the June edition of the Journal of Sexual Medicine.
The woman -- who the article notes was of normal intelligence -- told doctors she used the five-inch toy in a drunken sexual encounter a decade ago and didn't remember whether she took it out or not, the Daily Mail reported.
By the time surgeons found it, the toy's effects were potentially life-threatening. It had caused a bladder blockage that was forcing urine to back up into her kidneys, and had also created a vesicovaginal fistula, which is a tract that causes urine to flow into the vagina.http://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/5617590?ncid=fcbklnkushpmg00000022
