You don't sound narcisistic! You sound like you are in pain. It

also sounds like you have SO MUCH on your plate right now that

somebody with a perfectly healthy body would be overwhelmed. Have

you thought about what can " go " ? While losing weight might make you

healthier overall weight loss can be stressful on the body. Perhaps

thinking about healthy food in moderation and whatever exercise you

can manage without making things worse might be something to

consider. I also hope you let your pt know that the therapy has been

so painful, they may need to back off. PT helped my vestibulitis go

away completely. It took about eight months.

I have been there, believe me, and there absolutely is hope. I think

what would help us is if you tell us what your onset was (did you

always have v-pain or did something trigger it?) and what is it

like? I assume from your email it is all the time, not contact

only. I totally understand if you don't want to say what your other

condition is, but there may be a clue there. I suffer from chronic

headaches (controlled with medication) and had a horrible, 3 year

chronic fatigue-type illness. I'm convinced these problems and my v-

pain are related somehow. I recovered from the CFS and my vpain is

at the occasional nuisance level now where it once was a 24/7

nightmare. So have hope and tell us a little more...
