I'm taking 10mg amiltryptaline 2 times per day and 100mg gabapentin 3 times per day. It's been helping with the burning, but not achy pain. I finally got a referral for pt. I don't know if pt knows anything about pelvic floor dysfunction, but my Dr will not give me referral for pts on list cause they are all outside of network. I am trying to be as proactive as possible so I bought Amy Stein's book 'Healing Pelvic Pain' and have been doing the exercises in the book. I think I found a trigger point. All of my pain has been just on my left side and so is this trigger point. It is in the area where your upper thigh meets your perineum in the hollow area. Is that a muscle there? I massage the area as suggested but it doesn't seem to go away. How long does it take for trigger points to ease up? I've asked my Dr. twice for muscle relaxers and he won't give them to me. Bm's are my major pain flairs. I avoid sitting but how do you avoid bm.
