Guest guest Posted October 26, 2003 Report Share Posted October 26, 2003 Hello I haven't posted for a while, but after seeing so many new people in the group I wanted to update everyone on my life post surgery. I am feeling great. I no longer have pain during sex. I can even have intercourse two days in a row:) I am now preparing my body for trying to get pregnant. I really recommend Dr. Hamod at s Hopkins. He has changed my life. I only wish that I had found him ten years ago!!! If anyone has any questions about the surgery( I had my vestibular glands removed) please feel free to email me. 973@... Good luck I'm New Hi,This is my first time posting here also. I have had this problem approximately 4 years. I have pain during and after sex, also with tampons, basically anything inserted in the vagina. It was so bad, that I would just sit in a hot bath afterward, and I didn't even want to think about peeing. I think part of it is the way that I was describing my pain. For the past 3 years I have been treated for Endometriosis. I had a laparoscopy in 1999 because of pain. While I did have endometriosis, I didn't have it that badly. It made my periods better!! I then went on Lupron injections for 10 months. It actually helped alleviate some of the pain, but the menopausal state was horrible. (I was 29 at that time). In 2001, my pain was tolerable enough to where I could sometimes stand a relationship with my husband. I then got pregnant and had my baby in November of that year via C-section. A few months later, when attempting to have sex with my husband, it was way to painful for penetration. I lived with it for a while,hoping it would get better. I finally saw my doctor in January of this year and said I was desperate for a normal relationship with my husband. I told her I couldn't even stand to think about sex. She asked me when it would start to hurt. I told her, and then she did the "q-tip" test. I was diagnosed with Vestibulitis. She put me on an anti-depressant and said that it could help with nerve damage. I took it for a few months and it helped a little, but it completely knocked me out. I am about to start taking it again, because now that I have stopped, the pain is back full force. We have tried different positions, KY, different "toys", nothing works. I endure the pain for about 10 minutes and then I can't stand it any longer. I even tried baby orajel on the parts that hurt, hoping they would be numb long enough for me to have some semblance of a relationship, it didn't work either. > > Hi.

Guest guest Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 Hello everyone, I'm Dylan. I'm still new to this borderline thing, but i have reason to believe, after reading books on it, studying psychology and talking to my own therapist about it, that my dad has borderline personality disorder. I may seem a little young (20) but i have gone through a lot of bullshit with my dad's behavior, behavior that no one else in the world seemed to see but within my family. It's hard for me to generalize his behavior, but is a very...well i don't know i guess I'll stop there for now. thanks and i hope my stories are sort of relatable.
