Thought I would mention that as a doula I have seen cervical tearing and after suturing Doc assured the woman that it would heal fine and all would be fine in the future.  A midwife friend seconded that although it probably did not have to happen (a good internal exam would have determined that she was not ready to push-- esp. since the woman was birthing with an epidural you cannot go solely on the "urge to push") that it was not a long-term issue.

I think you should consider getting a few more opinions.

Best,
