Meant thrush cream in morning and vagifem at night.

[Scottishgirl]

Thanks Jeaniewigs.I must admit I love the stuff. Put it on my face too.

[Scottishgirl]

Well ladies pressing on with vagifem. Still burning. Maybe not as bad? But still debilitating. I'm just going for the 3 week load instead of 2 weeks. I have health anxiety. Now I'm paranoid there's something wrong with my bladder. ( Cancer ) Defo no uti though.

[Scottishgirl]

It's not burning when I wee, just burning all the time. I guess the atrophy can do that?

[AgathaC]

Sounds like you have had a rough time recently. I'm not surprised you health anxiety! It probably feels like one thing after another. I can't advise on the VA but the other ladies have given you loads of great advice above. Regarding your reversal op, I really hope that goes well. My dad had similar, a bag and then a reversal and it was very successful. Needed to take on board lots of post op diet changes. Can recommend lots of diet tips for that. Thinking of you during what I suspect is a long, sleepless night. Hope you get some relief using the tips above xx

Thanks Agatha c, I sure have been through a lot and I really hoped I could get on top of this burning before my op on Wednesday. I don't want to be dealing with bladder and bowel,issues, bladder thing is giving me most trouble at the moment.  Very depressing. Thank you for your kind words .

Anyone tried vitamin E. I have read some good Thi has about it.  The oil Inserted vaginally.

[Jenna]

I haven't tried Vitamin E, but 'Yes' water-based works wonders for me. I also use Estriol Cream (not Vagifem) twice a week as the gynae said that would be more helpful for me as my soreness was mainly in the undercarriage area. Also when I did try Vagifem it didn't suit me and made things worse.

I hope that might help in some way - good luck!

[Scottishgirl]

My discomfort(pain actually) is in the bladder and burning vaginal walls . So miserable.

[Jenna]

You could try 'Yes' water-based used vaginally (as I also do) or 'Yes' VM, but not at the same time as Vagifem, or you could even try Estriol Cream or Ovestin if you think Vagifem is not helping that much.

[Scottishgirl]

Problem is I can't get to GP before my operation on Wednesday, and where do you get the yes stuff from, and would that stop the bladder pain. Thanks so much for your help .

[Jenna]

You can buy 'Yes' products from Holland and Barrett. All I can say is that it helped me, but of course we are all different - sorry I know that is not much help. The 'yes' website has lots of useful information, if you would like to have a look there:

[Scottishgirl]

Thank you Jenna. Much appreciated.

[Scottishgirl]

Thanks Jeaniewigs. I'll try all that. And I'm married to a randy Irishman lol. Does that mean tea is out? I love it .
