I have been dealing with irritation in my Libia area , (just the inside of the Libia,"Lips" area) with sensativity and irratation , its so bad in the past I was able to apply KY gel, but now I can't even do that it just stings if ANYTHING is applied there , including vasealine. I was diagnoused with Peri-Menopause about 7 months ago, but just recently in DECEMBER 3RD 2009 , I had experienced with extream burning and itching , unbearable pain, as if I had my vagina was left ontop a stove and acid thrown on it. I had every test imaginable came back negative, I went to this one GYN she said it wasn't an Estrogen problem because I still had a uterus and periods, she was the 7th Doctor I had seen , I have examined by 6 other doctors that said everything looks perfectly normal , nothing unusual in or around my vulvu,vagina, No swelling, No redness, No blisters,sores, lessions etc... No unusal discharge, No urinary pain , or frequent Unraination , No odour, Nothing, No redness etc...Anyways this 7th Doctor I seen the female GYN told me that I looked perfectly healthy down there although I was just getting over my period at that visit, I had a cold sore that I just got on my face , so she suggested that I had a Herbies BLOOD test, they called me with the results saying Positive for Herbies 1 and Herbies 2 , been with the same man for 26 years , he turned out Negative, she had perscribed me Valtrex , that did no change at all. I got so stressed out over the entire situation since this started , especially when she told me I had Genatial Herbies, that I went for a second,third opion , all this was happening when I was on Vacation, so I flew back to my family Dr . after getting off the plane I ended up in emergency , they examined me down there and told me I DO NOT HAVE HERBIES, I seen my family DR the next morning He told me I do not have herbies and he had done blood work and evrything came back negative , and that he couldn't understand the sensativity around my Libiadia area , although on vacation I was perscribed 5 different steriod creams , antibiotics orally and internally again all these Dr could notr figure out why I was in so much pain. My Family Dr sent me too a GYN and he just examined me and told me as simple as I needed to be on Estrogen ceam , Premarin , which is tricky for me because I had a pelvic blood clot when Inwas 17 years old, and at 28 In had Conns sydrome, sroke, high blood pressure etc... and a Removal of my right Adrenal Gland , I am now 46 years old.
So right now I am using the premarin cream 2 times a week at 2grams, inside seems to be okay , but still sensative outside , except when I had my period the end of January ,I felt PERFECTLY fine as if nothing was ever wrong down there 100% perfect, but then after my period it started all over again , the singing on and around the Libia area , the DR told me to get sexually active again , it has been almost 2 months , so we tried again first with a condom , a little uncomfortable , but the stinging around my Libia cleared up for a day , but inside just a little sore , tried again without condom stinging around my Libia and sore again inside, my husband said I wasn't dry at all, so I am not sure if I should be usuing the Premarin Cream , as my family Dr told me I should ween off it , its been only 5 applications so far.And the Dr told me that if INcontinue to wait too long to have intercourse it will get to tight , so I am guessing thats why its sore a bit, but I am confused why my Libia is stillo sensative and sometimes still itchy .Anyone have any similiar symptons. again NO yeast infection, No UTI infection , No STDS , and I am only PERI-MENOPAUSE , Not Menopause , do anyone have any off these symptons for Peri-Menopause, I have hot flashes , irrability , mood swings .Please respond if anyone has an answer , its everyday I have feeling like this , my Dr said my stress doesn't help my symptons , he feels that could be why I have the stinging , sometimes I get it on my thighs, my mouth, and around my butt, it doesn't last too long, one more sympton I am always tired, fatique, I had extreamly alot of energy ,my kids and friends couldn't even keep up with me , but now I just fall asleep anytime during the day , 2-3 naps a day 2 hours long at times. I never took naps before, I don't hardly get dressed to go anywhere. Cause I find when I go walking for an hour it flares up again ,the burning .
Now my question is this can all this be related to Anxiety, or stress , as my family Docto, did every test he could think off and all comes back negative, and he put me on Clonozopam for Anxiety, stress , I only take them at night, they are 0.5mg , sometimes I take 3-4 , in fear I will feel pain, I told my doctor I take them to make me sleep as I have insomminia and restless leg syndrome , so he told me if the clonozopam settles down the symptons he strongly believes its stress related because he said thats what the medication is originally for, I am confused , because I know I was feeling Anxiety and stress for a while but now I feel calm and the symptons are still coming back. Can you tell me if this could be still stress related? Thnaks
