Over the past four years that I’ve had this condition I’ve seen and met with numerous specialists and have been told that my build (Thin, not a lot of padding on my butt) my job (sitting most of the day) and riding a motorcycle for long periods of time contributed to my problem. I am curious to see what build everyone has and if they received any trauma. Please answer the following questions,
What build type?
• Thin
• Average
• Heavy
Condition started with?
• Trauma
• Micro Trauma (Slow progression)
What body type are you?

PNE since 2002. Started from weightlifting. PNE surgery from Dr. Bautrant, Oct 2004. Pain now is usually a 0 and I can sit for hours on certain chairs. No longer take medication for PNE. Can work full time and do "The Firm" exercise program. 99% cured from PGAD. PNE surgery was right for me but it might not be for you. Do your research.
