Hi there, I'm new to using a forum and I also have never been involved with joining groups of any kind. But, oh boy!, was I excited and relieved to find out about this site! My life has been such a nightmare. The parts of my body that are effected by the pudendal nerve damage, have quickly taken over all other parts of life. I have been becoming a completely different person. I am so consumed by the pain and loss of bodily control ,I've become so very depressed. I really want to hope that I can get some answers and advice to help me carry on. I'm sorry for sounding like a martyr. This is not how I was before the surgery. I had to have a bladder lift and also have the vagina muscles cut and stitched back together. Hopefully keep the bladder from falling back out through the vagina. I could tell by next morning, after surgery, that something was wrong. The pain was far to intense, I have a very high threshold for pain. Because of having been dealing with spinal problems for years. I apologize, I am so all over the place with what was to be a simple hello to get myself known . I just wanted to ask one question about how to start "off" with a proper way to give out my story and then hopefully get answers to questions? Trying to be hopeful.

Cheryl, how long has it been since your pelvic surgery? Sometimes it takes time for the pain to subside and sometimes seeing a pelvic floor PT post-op can be helpful. What have you tried so far to relieve the pain?
