Guest guest Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 I can't remember, have you been to see and Liz at www.pelvicpainrehab.com ?

Also please join the group happypelvis as it is oriented toward PT and the girl who started it got well from PT due to Liz. I, myself got well due to PT from STephanie. Please check out the articles section and the success story section.

I don't know where to startbecause I am frustrated and feel hopeless. How does a Dr. go aboutgiving a person a diagnosis of VVS, are there tests, a biopsy, or isit a process of elimination? My first OBGYN Dr. told me hebelieves I have this chronic condition but he couldn't say for sure.Last week, I saw my second OBGYN Dr. and he didn't do anexamination, which I thought was strange. He referred me to aneurology chiropractor (Dr.Rottacker) which is a fairly new type ofpractice. Has anyone heard of it or tried it and had any success? Ihad a consultation with him this past Saturday and he told me theprudential nerve has a lot to do with the pain. I'm going to Stanfordhospital on Dec.13th to see Dr.Brodzinsky who is an OBGYN doc whospecializes in VVS. In the meantime though I don't know what to doabout my "contact pain." During March through August, I used monistat,antifungals, diflucan pills numerous times along with a one time usageof Candida. I believe my skin is very dried out, thin and has noelasticity to it. What can I do to repair it or heal it? I heardsomething about Emu oil mixed with another ingredient. Any help wouldbe appreciated! Tonight's top picks. What will you watch tonight?

Guest guest Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 I haven't seen or Liz yet but I would like to go to their facility. I believe that when I go to Stanford that Dr.Brodzinsky will know who and Liz are and will tell me to go their and if not I will bring it up. I joined the Happy Pelvis Group a couple weeks ago but haven't posted anything as of yet. I've been feeling really down and mentally drained from this chronic condition.

I joined the Happy Pelvis Group a couple weeks ago but haven't posted anything as of yet. I've been feeling really down and mentally drained from this chronic condition. Pain "IS" mentally draining, so I definitely hear you...Maybe you could make an appt. with Liz or Steph now, cause it usually takes time to 'get in' to see these good PT's. Then, when you go to your next appt. if you don't feel like the Dr. is helping you, you could go get a good thorough PT evaluation. After going to Rhonda K. myself, I think every woman with Pelvic Pain should get a PT evaluation...that way, you would know for sure whether or not you have any muscles or connective tissue issues. If not, you could look to meds for treatment. It may take a combination of PT and meds or even something else to get well. Hang in there, and don't give up hope!

Guest guest Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 Does anyone know of a great PT in Northern NJ, specifically the /Union county area? Has anyone seen Debra Goldberg at Four Corners in Verona? I am currently on Estrace and it seems to be helping my skin but I am still burning quite a bit. I think it is time for an evaluation by a PT. Thanks, Melinda W. ________________________________________________________________________________\ ____ Need a vacation?
