Update about myself.

Hi all,
The last time I posted on here was about me thinking that I had acidosis instead of vulvodynia. I did a lot of research and it seemed like acidosis was the cause of why I burned. Well I was very very wrong. And found out the hard way. When I researched about acidosis it suggested to eat foods that were high in the 5 main minerals. One of the main foods was spinach. And to take a supplement with the 5 main minerals. Which those supplements were pretty expensive. Well anyways, I started taking those supplements and starting eating a lot more spinach. BIG BIG mistake. After doing this for a few days I was on fire. First let me point out, I only burn down there. No muscle pain or any other vulvodynia symptoms, just burning. Anyways, I guess I have been trying to diagnose myself in the hopes that I can find my own cure and hoping that I didn't have V. But I do. So after years of being stubborn and trying other cures, I finally started out the low oxalate diet. Once I started reading the list of foods to avoid, everything made so much sense. The spinach, very high on oxalates. After that whole experience with the spinach, I was on fire. As soon as I started following the LOD, the burning lessened. There is no other way around it. If you are like me and you only burn, you have to do the LOD. The food list is very overwhelming. There is so much foods that are high in oxalates. Like milk & dark chocolate, a lot of greens, nuts, berries, wheat, grains etc. You can still eat these foods, but a very very small amount. And of course my favorite foods are on the high list LOL. I also started taking calcium citrate 1,000mg 3 times a day and Magnesium 250mg 1 a day. These have really helped also to where I can still eat some foods high in oxalates. The LOD is on many many articles for V and suggests to do this diet to treat V symptoms. Give this LOD a chance. Start it out slow.

So good to hear when someone finds something that helps them I get more raw/sore pain so wondering if the lod would work for that?
