Welcome to the forum.
It is unforunate to know this.
If pain killers do not work, then pelvic inflammatory disease needs to be ruled out by pelvic examination and ultrasound scan.
A course of antibiotics should help in addition to the pain killers.
If there is still pain, I cannot think of anything else other than removing the sling.
Wish wyou pain free life.
Best regards
