I went to my doc who refered me to a Gynogologist but I cant get in until May 8th.  I went on line and have now managed to freak myself out.  Anyone else have symptoms like this?

I had discomfort and tenderness. I guess it really depends on where you might have changes. I also had a little itching from time to time, that would drive me mad. It turned out I have VIN, which I've just had surgery for plus biopsies. I'm sure your doctor explained there are many different conditions that may cause changes to your vulva. Try not to freak yourself out too much. I know that it is hard not to do your own research, but you may be far off with your diagnoses. Keep yourself positive as much as you can. Yep that is easier said than done at times, but worrying yourself doesn't help you. Good luck for the 8th. I'm sorry that I'm not much help.MandyAustralia tuscan Sun, 27 Apr 2008 00:00:00 GMT
