Re: chronic pelvic pain patientFrom: Joanne Bulley, MD (islesannie@yahoo.com)Sun Feb 29 18:42:29 2004
Rich, I find it amazing that here in Keene, NH ("podunk" to you big city folks) - a city of 23,000 - that we have a great Pain Clinic and a great PT for the pelvic floor therapy! Anyhow - it seems to me that if 1 year of Lupron and add-back estrogen has her osteopenic enough to fracture with a minimal injury - then I bet that there is some underlying psychological thing going on. I would bet that there is a long-standing eating disorder ... then that is based on poor self image etc - and that the chroninc pelvic pain is related to that as well - along with whatever lead her to be so deprived of self power that her only power over herself was food related. I would do my very best to NOT castrate her - I don't think it will work. Otherwise - have you checked for non-estrogen causes of osteoporosis? thyroid, parathyroid etc? Joanne

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
