Many physical activites such as sports, pelvic surgery, etc can all contribute to PN

Merry Christmas to you, Ellie! Congrats on your surgery date! How long are you staying in the hospital? After you're released from the hospital?
I'll be keeping you in my thoughts and wishing the very best for you. :)
Hugs,
Karyn

Surgery Jan.05 2011 TG with Dr Antalok. Dr.Chambi May of 2012 showed injury from a fall on back, 11 years ago. My piriformis muscle caused a large amount of fibrosis .My sciatic nerve was growing through the piriformis muscle which caused a bifid p.muscle. . Dr Chambi decompressed the sciatic,pudendal,pfcn ,and peroneal nerves. I hope to have a nuerostimulator put in to help with the sciatic pain that never goes away. Most days are better with the pudendal if I do not sit at all.

Hi Ellie,
No, I haven't had surgery yet. I've got a consultation coming up January 18th with Dr. Shobeiri for bliat TG. Originally, I was going to try to do it all in one trip but it was just too stressful. So, I'll meet with Dr. S, hear what he has to say and schedule the surgery after meeting him.
I've heard great things about Dr. A and am so happy you were able to get your appointment bumped up. Everything will be OK, Ellie! :)
With love and hugs,
Karyn

Hi Karyn,

Sounds like your getting a bit of IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) symptoms probably because your under so much stress with the pain.
