Re: Rectal manometry test - any reason to do one?
I don't know of a single PNE doctor who requires the results from this in order to treat you. Hope this helps!

Re: Tramadol for PN causing anxiety?
Read this post and see if a medication change might be in order for you. The drug mentioned is one that is sometimes given to performers in a low dose to combat the anxiety of stage fright.

Chair with cut out seat
I wonder if this could be of use to anyone. A cushion might be needed but still, maybe this would help those who must sit for some length of time.

Re: Proposed Facebook Memorial for PN suicides
I feel like those families and friends can create their own memorials as they see fit (or not). I think it's kind of weird and borderline wrong for somebody who didn't even know them, to want to create this. I think there is quite enough PN "awareness" activity going on without contacting ...

Re: Pregnant with PN
Fifteen weeks? Your window of opportunity for a surgical D&C abortion passed at 12 weeks when the uterus was still hard and able to be scraped. Now it is larger and too soft for that to be safe for you. If you terminate it will have to be a procedure more like what you go through giving birth. I...

Re: New Person with Pudendal Nerve Disorder
Also, many people are opting for more conservative therapies first before heading into surgery. But, people have ALWAYS done conservative therapies first. I don't see how it's even possible to first head in to surgery when these doctors require you to exhaust your conservative options first. The wh...

Re: Ultra Sound Treatments
He had a home unit and bought his online, but a PT recommended it so it's possible he had office treatments with it first.

Re: New PNer
I live in the Metro NY area. thanks for the tips, Bobby! I will try them! Do I ask my Neurologist for a PT referral or my primary care doc (sorry to be so dense). You want to see Amy Stein, then. I don't know if she needs a referral so you might call her office and see what they require so you'll h...

Re: New and looking for help/advice
VP, I am so sorry about your pregnancy loss. I think some of your symptoms sound like they might resolve with pelvic floor physical therapy, maybe even some core strengthening to help see if that will affect your back pain.
