Does anyone else have unrelenting coccyx pain?

I just started exploring PN as the cause for my vulvodynia a few weeks ago.. last week, i started getting extreme coccyx pain that doesnt subside.. it gets worse when i sit and lay.. and is there when i stand but not AS bad.. i am just wondering if this is a symptom of PN..

also, does anyone have any advice on how to manage the pain?

Jamie,

There are I believe people on this forum who have PNE with coccyx pain, however you might also have a more fruitful search on http://www.coccyx.org . A deviated (bent) coccyx will cause a drag on the pelvic floor muscles, so while you might have PNE, your coccyx might also be the primary problem; if so the coccyx site should be helpful.
