Morning ladies! 3 years of bleating on about post menopause misery, which has sort of been narrowed down to vaginal atrophy, vulvodynia, PFS and IBS/GERD, and of course, all the head "stuff", for which I am on Pregabalin, Evorel Conti 50 and Vagifem 10. I can't say any of them have had much of an affect on any of my symptoms, although Venlafaxin has helped anxiety and nervous tension to a degree, but I now have a strange jumping twitch in my left hand and lower legs, along with a weird weak sensation in my left shoulder!
I was told by one of the many thousands of clinicians that I have seen, that Vulvodynia and Pelvic Floor Dysfunction can affect the intricate network of nerves that run through pelvis and up to the Solar Plexus, and it was suggested I see a Neuro Consultant, but I am worn out with rubbish, and incomplete diagnosis, and just always feel Neurology is a bit of a wishy washy area of medicine. Have any of you had any experiences of Neurosurgeons?
