Guest guest Posted October 5, 1999 Report Share Posted October 5, 1999 Hello Shirley and all, I really appreciate your sharing your experience with us. I am sorry for all you have been through. Even though I have not had cancer, I can relate to your ordeal. Your comment about feeling " incomplete " really struck a nerve with me. I had surgery to remove the vestsibular glands several years ago in a desparate attempt to cure my vulvar pain. My medical records describe the surgery as " partial vulvectomy. " I have always felt incomplete since this surgery even though no one sees this area and my husband says sex does not feel any different. I do not know how to overcome this feeling but I think I know how you feel. If my surgery had been successful in alleviating my pain maybe I could put it behind me but it was not. I know others on this list have had vulvar surgery. Is the emotional factor an issue for you? Jacovia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
