Some questions about my treatment for vulvodynia From: Kristy (anonymous@obgyn.net) Fri, 30 Jun 2000 05:36:08 -0700 (PDT) Messages sorted by: [ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ] Next message: Janet: "Congratulations on a Superb Service - Can we have a British one?"

I originally posted this message for Dr. Marchbein, but I would also like to open this up to the rest of you wonderful drs. :) Here is what I posted shown below. ------------------------------------------------------ I have some other questions for you. About how many of your patients have vulvodynia? Also, what kind of a treatment plan do you use with them? ------------------------------------------------------ -- ------------------------------------------------------ Here's what my dr is doing with me: 1. xylocaine 5% ointment for the pain that isn't strong enough to need pain meds like Darvocet or Lorcet. I also use this ointment before I put on my underwear b/c they irritate me (the cotton ones that I have right now don't irritate as much as the other ones did). 2. Premarin cream in the hopes that it would toughen up the skin in that area. 3. Sitz baths on occasion (latest episode is a cold sitz bath to see if the swelling in the top portion of my vaginal opening will go down) for the burning and itching that I get. 4. Darvocet, Lorcet for when the pain gets so bad that the xylocaine doesn't seem to be enough. What do you think of this course of treatment? Also should she and I be considering anti-inflammatories as an addition to this current course of treatment. Also, do you anything about this dr up in NY that wants to work with a drug company in the hopes of finding something better to work with vulvodynia on a long term basis? We got some rain here in Jacksonville, FL. Hopefully we will get some more rain to keep the temps a little cooler down here. Take care, Kristy :) Next message: Janet: "Congratulations on a Superb Service - Can we have a British one?" Previous message: michelle: "Re: Possible Blighted Ovum?? Pls Help" Next in thread: R.
