Vulvular vestibulitis??

[Guest guest]

Hi Gals.

Can someone tell me what vulvular vestibullitis is? I went

to my dermatologist yesterday and she had a group of gyne experts

come in and see me. They said I had this and prescribed

metronidazole for it and said I should feel better in two weeks. I

also have vaginosis(have no clue how I got this as I my hubby and I

have not even had sex in months because of all the pain I have down

there due to all my problems) an infection in the vagina that was

found by a swab test done by my urogynecologist. This drug is also

suppose to treat this. Unfortunately, I am having side affects with

this drug (a horrible burning sensation in my tongue), it kept me up

all night. I only took one pill of the metronidazole last evening

and I am still having the burning in my tongue. I stopped the med

and called the dermatologist and her assistant called and said this

was not a side affect of this med. I dont buy it because I did not

have this senstaion before i took the med. She wants me to continue

taking it. I decided to call my urogynecologist to see if he can

switch this to maybe a topical cream that goes inside to treat the

vaginosis. I also have bladder pain and urethral pain as well. I was

told that the vaginosis may be attributing to the urethral pain as

well. I also have IC (interstitual cystitis). The only bad thing is

that the nurse from my urogynes office said that the metronidazole

pill is better than a topical because it is more systemic, but if I

cant take it, then I cant take it.

Anyhow, what else do you guys use to treat the vulvular

vestibulitis?
