Just had to share my news. My daughter who is a pharmacist has been accepted into Med. School. I've told her she MUST specialise in Pudendal Nerve Issues. She has gone through this with me for the past 8 years.
Be interesting to see exactly what she will be taught about PN if anything. Hopefully by the time she gets to that part she'll be teaching them a thing or two. Med. School in Western Australia is changing over the next year so she will commence studies in 2014.

Congratulations to your daughter, Catherine! You must be very proud and happy to know that she will be a physician who will advocate for PN patients. My son just started an orthopedic surgery residency and when he was in med-school he did a presentation to some of the attending physicians and residents on pudendal neuralgia. I don't know yet if he will specialize in PNE -- I think he is more interested in hand surgery but who knows? He may end up doing hips and if so I will definitely inform him about the recent evidence in the relationship between labral tears and PN.
The rigorous schedule these med-students and residents have to go through is really intense and it takes many years of hard work and sacrifice so your daughter is going to need your shoulder to lean on. Thankfully, you are well now and can give her the support she's going to need. Her background in pharmacy is going to be extremely helpful.

Here in Sydney Australia, Prof. Vancaillie is now working with Orthopedic Surgeon Dr. Loefler in the TG surgical release. A good combination of skilled surgeons.
