Guest guest Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 Hello My name is Ariel and three years ago I was diagnosed with VVS. I did 16 weeks of physio took tons of anti depressants and nothing worked. Last March, through extreme torturous pain I did what needed to be done and got pregnant. In March, I gave birth to a beautiful baby girl and thought that maybe the natural birth might have helped a little. Due to the epidural the birth was ok the stitches were torture and I had to get a dose of demerol and now thank goodness I do not remember the pain. Just this week, I am having an outbreak of pain and itchiness. I just moved to New York City, my current gyno of course never heard of VVS but did some reading lol and tried to send me back to physio lol. which of course i have no interest in wasting another 1600$. the burning and the itchiness is terrible what do you suggest if anything i can take or use to relieve this??? Thanks Ariel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 29, 2008 Report Share Posted January 29, 2008 Hi Ariel, sorry that you are still having pain. Where did you have PT? From what I understand, all pelvic floor PT's are by no means the same. I drove 9 hrs. to Chicago, IL for a good thorough pelvic floor evaluation and skin rolling. I'm sure others will write and tell you their stories, but several with vestibulitis have been helped with PT. Are you breastfeeding? If so, that can cause vaginal dryness that could lead to itchiness. Antihistamines can help when your skin is itchy and inflamed. Have you been checked for infection? There is tons of good info on our group homepage...best wishes, Chelle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
