Hey everyone, I haven't been on here in a while. A lot has happened. It turns out I have a C Diff infection and tried to treat it with antibiotics but it came back. I don't know for sure, but I think it was causing a lot of the bad feelings down there (your intestine becomes inflamed, pushing agains...

No, but I need to get the neurologist to go along with the Potter MRI.

Good news, I don't have any sort of prolapse!

Hey, I too held in my pee for too long (with a soft cup nontheless). That was a contrbuting factor to my current problem. I have all the symptoms you described, some to a lesser degree, exept perhaps the tingling. Well, I mean I did have tingling in my genitals, but that isn't as bad as it was. I ha...

Alright, I went to him and he says getting off of SSRIs make you have bad feelings. I don't know, he doesn't seem to care about it. He wants to take an MRI of my back however. Interestingly enough, I went to a pelvic therapist in Iowa City and she said I have very tense on my left side; both the vag...

Thanks for the list. Fortunately the place I'm going to has a 3T MRI. Thing is, he has to scan my back because we don't know if I have a slipped disc, I guess I'll have to ask him to scan my pelvic area as well. As for the skin, I thought you got better results from a biopsy than just from an EMG.

Is there a list of nerves I need him to test? Do I just tell him I'm having pelvic pain or do I say that I suspect PN? Will an MRI help at all to rule out PNE? Also, do I request a skin biopsy? I'm not that forceful with my doctors, something to do with "respecting authority". I have never...

I don't have incontinence per-se, but I have noticed that there is a feeling of something being "stuck" in my rectum. There's also a dampness and staining of my liners. I think it might be a mucosal prolapse, or like you said, it could be hemorrhoids (hopefully!). The weird thing is, somet...

Yikes! Thanks for the help. I'm going to go to a gastroenterologist to see how bad the prolapse is. Also, I'm going to ask the PT what to do. I'm so sad right now

So I left off with me getting acupuncture. I don't know if it did much but oh well. I went to Iowa City (they have a medical university) and the dr said I could try therapy. She also said nerve blocks and botox were available. I will be going to therapy first. In intermittent time between seeing the...
