Gabapentin Gel. or other topical creams
Thu May 10, 2018 9:43 am by Rosie21
Hi I have been suffering for some years with this abominable pain. I have tried most of the systemic drugs , I asked specialists and Doctors if I could at least try a topical treatment but because this requires a special prescription have been refused Has anybody had a chance of trying these? Thank you I will try to put a link on to some of the research into Gabapentin Gel. Thanks.

Putnams 'bony parts' cushion or Putnams 'Dr Huff' cushion - which is best?
Sat Aug 01, 2015 4:17 pm by Fielder
Hi everyone,
I'm a newbie. I live in the UK.
I'm trying to work out the best cushion to get for my vulvodynia. I suspect that I could have pudendal nerve involvement (the aching and burning pain is from vagina to clitoris) and I have rectocele and some tailbone pain too.
I have seen some good reports on older threads regarding the Putnams pressure relief cushions....with some ladies …

Dear All,
I posted on here back in March 2017 having just got a diagnosis of vulvodynia after a few months of relentless and acute pain. I was desperate, I was hurting, I was scared I would never know life without pain there again.
I tried creams, acupuncture, numbing gels, frozen pads, baths with various internet recommended concoctions- convinced myself I had lichen sclerosus, herpes, thrush- …

MonaLisa Touch
Fri Feb 08, 2019 7:35 pm by rl2091
Hi All,
I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with the MonaLisa Touch treatment for Vulvodynia? My pain started when I went on HRT(pill) for anxiety mainly and my pain abruntly stopped when I stopped HRT. However, when I started on the HRT patch (at my dr's suggestion), the pain returned and has never left. That was 7 years ago. I found MonaLisa Touch on the internet purely by accident …

Hi All,
I’m so glad I’ve found a place where there are others who understand how I feel!
So this is my story:-
I’m 36, and 4 months ago, whilst innocently sitting in bed reading I experienced a very sharp stabbing pain in my clitoris. It last only a few minutes and then subsided as quickly as it came on. It put it down to “one of those things”. The following morning I woke up …

Hi everyone,
About three months ago, I started having vaginal and vulval itching. Then, about two months ago, my vulva started to feel painful and look swollen, so I went to the doctor. I was tested for herpes, chlamydia, and gonorrhea which all came back negative. I also had to do a vaginal swab test and the only thing that came back positive was yeast infection. I was prescribed hydrozole …

Know the Reasons why we should take exercise

Know the Reasons why we should take exercise
How you move, exercise and stretch can have a dynamic impact on your health. To give you some advice on why you need to move I’m here, Dr. Michael Cohen a chiropractor from New South Wales Australia.
Reasons why we need to move and take an exercise:
-Exercise and daily movement reduces Cortisol in the body, your stress hormone! Therefore the more you move the less you stress!
-Our ancestors used to walk over 10kms each day minimum and had relatively now incidence of lifestyle illness, now in the USA 20% of the population move less than 200 metres in day- they also have the largest percentage of lifestyle related illness in the world- heart disease, diabetes, obesity etc
-People who exercise and move daily whilst burning energy actually create more efficient metabolisms and as such have significantly more energy for their day- bigger and better engines!
-People who exercise, look more attractive, have on average clearer skin, brighter perspectives on life and enjoy greater sex! What do you want?
-Exercise is best performed in the morning because this prevents the unexpected daily events from interrupting your exercise routine and has a “fire up” mechanism for your metabolism which leaves you more alert for the day and better yet burning calories throughout your workday!
-Building lean muscle mass will actually increase your metabolism- that is weight / resistance training can help you lose weight and increase energy for your day.
-Your body needs movement to remove waste products. The discs which lay between the bones of your spine only get nutrients when they move, sitting all day and not exercise see these decay away over time.
-Exercise helps prevent lifestyle illnesses like Diabetes, Heart disease, Obesity, Osteoporosis, Depression even Cancer
-Osteoporosis is more a movement deficiency disease that a Calcium deficiency disease. Bones that do not move and bear weight become brittle.
-A dog stretches more than 10 times a day, how often do you?
-Yoga and Pilates are great ways to improve flexibility. They take your body into ranges you might otherwise ignore. Each day you should try to take each joint in your body through as many ranges as possible.
-Daily exercise can increase your life expectancy and more importantly improve the quality of that time!
This site seems to be an interesting forum site and a nice place to share and learn ideas from somebody else. I’m looking forward for a good stay ahead and have and establish an interesting discussion with all of you here. Thanks and have a wonderful day!
