Tess,

I don't know if there are any vulvar specialists that

he knows of in your area but here in ville

there is one that is associated with Shands

ville and I found out from someone else that

his concept for treating vulvodynia is using vegetable

oil and then if that doesn't work to do surgery.

So what is your next step now and what did it feel

like after he put the silver nitrate on you? I've

heard of Silver Nitrate but not sure exactly what it

looks like, etc.

Also in relation to the DES did your mother's mother

ever take it at one time?

Kristy

hi kristy!

how was your visit with dr. london? are you feeling any better?

im not sure who he knows in florida, but i'll definitely let you know who it

is! i hope its not that vegetable oil guy hehe :/

i couldnt feel the silver nitrate when he put it on at all, but since he put

it on i have felt much much better. i dunno if its just coincidence but the

vv pain has gone down a lot since friday. i think my next step is to just

wait for my biopsy results and to take all the pills he gave me. he also put

me on micronor unfortunately, i swore i would never go on BC. i am so afraid

of it!

that is a very good question, i didnt even think of the possibility of my

grandma taking DES. could that cause a defect in me? wow! thanks for

mentioning that!

take care tess

Dear Tess, I was just thinking last night that it

really is probably time I take a visit to this

Dr.. Although I really like the doctor I see now

and have had some success and learned new ideas, I

certianly am not close to normal yet. So, I was

wondering If you could tell me how much it cost you to

see him. Since I am in WI it certianly will not be

covered by insurance. Glad you had a successful

visit!!

Hi Tess,

Welcome back!! I'm sorry that I didn't say that the

first time, but I'm glad that I have done so now. As

for the visit with Dr. London it went ok and also as I

expected. I ended up with another infection so she

put me on IV antibiotics for 3 days. I started that

nite after it only took one hour to get the approval.

I finished up the antibiotics on Sunday a.m. and am in

the process of trying to make an additional appt for a

follow-up culture.

What kinds of other pills did he give you besides the

Micronor? I hope that all of them work for you. As

for the DES connection I really don't know enough to

be able to tell you if it skips generations or not. I

guess the thing that you could do is to ask your

grandma or Mom about it.

Sorry that I can't be of more help. Oh before I

forget I found out today that Dr. London is booked

until the end of Dec, but they are going to try to

work something for me. They had already by setting me

up for the 6th but that date won't work out so I'm

going to switch places with my mother and I will go on

the 2nd.

I will keep you posted on how things go. Talk to you

later.

Kristy

hi kristy!

i hope that infection clears up, when will you know for sure? did you have

to do the IV at the hospital?

the other stuff he gave me is zithromax, sporonox, and anusol suppositories.

i havent started anything yet though, i am afraid of all of them and i dont

want to take them :/ i hate taking new pills, especially the birth control.

i am afraid i am going to have a heart attack, you know in those commercials

where they tell all the side affects and one of them is increased risk for

heart attack. i think i will probably start tomorrow though, i guess

anything is better than hurting all the time! thats really interesting you

brought that up about the DES, im definitely going to look in to that. i am

having trouble finding info on it, other than the DES thing.

take care ! :)tess

Hi Tess,

I will know if the infection cleared up when we take the

other culture. Dr. London had me do them (IV antibiotics)

at home but I let her know before they arranged everything

that I didn't want to do it at home and of course she just

had to ask why so I told her. Then I asked her to tell me

what it would involve doing it at home, and the reason that

I did ask that is b/c of the fact that I knew that she was

going to win even though she asked me later if I would be

agreeable to a 24 hour stay after we had talked about it in

the room. I told her yes but then when I got the call at

10:30 saying it was all arranged there was no hospital

admission involved.

I've taken Zithromax, and Sporanox before. I've also used

Anusol in the cream form. I did well on the Zithromax and

the Sporanox. I wish that I knew what to say about the

Micronor though. I've never taken it. Dr. London has me

on Ovral b/c of the way that I take the pill to treat my

endometriosis.

I also understand your concern about the new meds. Does

Dr. London know that you went to see Dr. , and if so

what was her thought on it? I know that I had told her

that several of the girls on the list were going to him

(this was before I knew that you were definitely going) but

that I would never even think about going even if I wanted

to b/c he charges way too much to take care of a patient.

How much did he charge you for the visit and tests? I'm

sure that someone had asked that earlier but I can't

remember who it was now.

Also, it is my feeling that if you are that concerned about

those meds that he gave you don't take them, and let him

know that you are uncomfortable with taking them. Also if

you will e-mail me privately I will tell you of a site that

you can check out where this subject has been talked about

before.

On the issue of adenosis you might also be able to get some

more info from Dr. London about it b/c she's always reading

stuff so maybe she will know. And the same thing about the

DES.

Take care and let me know how things are going for you.

Also my e-mail address is now thru Yahoo. I hope that I

was able to help.
