Re: What if lifestyle changes aren't really an option?

I knew some but not all of that. I guess I'll see the blocks through, ive been dealing with it for a while and its really starting to take my life apart. I feel like as time goes on its getting a bit worse, and I'm already not working. I know this really isn't considered a "Terminal" probl...

Re: What if lifestyle changes aren't really an option?

Thanks, I think I understand. What I fundamentally don't seem to understand, is what I really need to do. I understand that not sitting helps relieve pain, but what can I do to actually attempt to fix the issue? That I guess is what I'm having trouble grasping. I've had an injection, and I have anot...

PT mentioned SIJD

So, this might sound weird but I 'm just recalling something my PT said, before I was diagnosed with PN. She made mention of one foot being a bit shorter, and that could cause some of my pelvic pain. I had put an orthodic in my right shoe, and it made me a bit for stable standing, but did nothing fo...

Re: Recovery Time Vs Pain Relief

I had been seeing a PT occasionally, and she was actually the one that suggested I see Antolak; my GI had guessed pt might help for "general pelvic floor" problems. The internal massage didn't really do anything, sans the fact that she could manipulate the area better to help me get an ide...

Recovery Time Vs Pain Relief

I've seen in a number of surgery topics, the issue of Recovery time vs pain relief comes up. Is there one method that is preferred for ahtletes/ or people that have extremely physical jobs? It seems like TG is the most "thorough" but leaves you with cut ligament, which I think would make c...

Re: What if lifestyle changes aren't really an option?

I was given gabapentin before my diagnosis (another doctor took a stab in the dark) but it did nothing besides give me a bit of a head *buzz*. I react extremely poorly to anti-depressant medications, ever since I was given Strattera (ssri). I nod out, and they have caused the *bad* thoughts you try ...

Re: Has anyone been cured and if so HOW?

This is probably the coolest and most positive thing I've seen since I started trying to help my condition. (PN only, at least related to pelvic issues)
Thank you :mrgreen:

What if lifestyle changes aren't really an option?

This might sound strange to some, since it seems the first step is self care and lifestyle changes. Some background, I'm 26 and have had PN pain for close to 2 years. I self diagnosed myself after 5 other specialists (including a colorectal surgeon who wanted to "stick a camera in your belly bu...
