The Response

Well it has been a long time since I last posted.  So here is the update.  Dr G was speechless at the recommendations of the local doc's/specialists as he put it when he got to the point of having words is that the meds that they wanted to put my wife on are the same type that caused the pain in the first place, which to say the least he thought was a very bad idea.

On the plus side on my wife's last PT session her PT said that her tissue looks the best it has in the entire time she has been seeing my wife and she was able to increase the intensity of the exercises she has my wife doing.

On the down side my wife's pain level's have been up again before and after her period.  At this point I don't really like the idea of having the burn up the uterus surgery as I just don't know for sure that we are done having kids and the surgery is a very final decision on that option, not to mention there is not a guarantee that it will help just a chance it will.

So it has been a bit of a down month, I just try and remember that we are so much better off than we were in the past, but it is always hard when there is some regression in healing.

Anyway my wife is off to her next Dr G visit next week and it will be interesting to hear what his prognosis is and what he thinks the next step should be.

Also a question out there for those of you reading this, how do you cope with the differences in sexual desire/needs between you and your partner?

I just found your blog & I think it's great. It's encouraging to read how far your wife has come. I've been dealing with a severe case since 2002. It's very frustrating as both of you know. Good luck to you both & to all of us :)
Take care
