Discharge!Lyrica, inflammation, tests with no result

Ok so I have been taking Lyrica for 2 weeks. It hasn't really done much at all for me. How long does it take to work?

I feel like my discharge is burning my skin...the area where my discharge hits my vulva area are always the reddest....and if I have a wad of discharge come out it burns, and when I wash it off with water the burn slightly eases. It actually looks like burn marks on my skin where the discharge has been. Yet all swab tests I have had show nothing! How the f*ck does that work? I seriously have no idea what these f*ckwit doctors have tested me for. I don't know if they have checked my PH, if I have been tested for yeast glabrata or just run of the mill candida, or if I have been tested for cytolytic vaginosis, or desquamative inflammatory vaginitis....These are all far less common conditions, all of which I could possibly have! I itch like crazy almost 24/7...I get instant relief on my period.

I am red raw.. .Apparently this chronic inflammation is not common with vulvodynia?

Any advice would be much appreciated. Hope everyone had a great easter.x

I was the same way for months and finally I had a Nurse pract give me an order for boric acid tablets you do the treatment for two weeks it helped me a lot it helps get your vagina to the proper ph level. If you can't get a doctor to write you an order I have seen online that you can order it from Amazon and the gel caps to put it in. It might help if not it won't hurt you to try it. I still have some itchiness but now the lyrica works for that and if I want to wear pants I have to use a compound cream.

Thankyou for your reply. My whole vulva is red raw...Noone can work out why. I burn on and off but itch almost 24/7 and nothing gets the inflammation down how long did it take for Lyrica to kick in and work? I side my vaginal does not itch or hurt, it is only when the discharge becomes air borne. Does Boric acid hurt or burn when you use it? I don't understand how something that goes inside the vaginal would fix the entire red raw vulva. I get it about the burning discharge but the rawness goes right up to my urethral area. The whole situation just confuses and frustrates me

The Boric Acid does not hurt at all it is in capsules you put in it every other night before bed and the next day you want to make sure you wear a panty liner though because you will have some stuff come out through out the day. you do this for two weeks. the lyrica worked pretty quick for me but it just took the edge off of my pain level never took it away. I am also now on a compound cream of gabapentin, amitriptyline, lidocaine and baclofen this helps if I want to wear pants for a couple of hours. I have been dealing with this for almost a year now and am wondering when its going to end!!!!
Good luck

I have a similar discharge problem. My doctor in italy says that the inflammation is a consequence of the vv and I have to say that since I started my physio I am having a bit less discharge. Maybe physio reduce inflammation and consequently discharge
