Guest guest Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 Hey Lindsey,I hope the no-coffee deal continues to help you! I agree, if giving up coffee makes a difference...I say give it up! I had to give up caffeine yrs. ago. It causes migraines for me.Take Care,ChelleLindsey wrote: I tried the low oxalate diet and it didn't work. However...I have been much better. I wake up feeling great but over the course of the day I start to have irritation that ranges from a low of a 1-2 to as high as 5 or 6 if hubby and I have had a lot of intimacy due to trying to have a baby. The other day I forgot my morning cup of coffee on the counter and lo and behold-hardly any burning later in the day. I have been without coffee since last Friday. I have had almost zero pain. I will keep you all updated. I know there are acids in coffee that might irritate the vulvar tissue. It's not the low oxalate diet per se, but possibly an irritant. I love coffee but I love even more the idea of being pain free. Lindsey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
