I see this is fairly new post of yours and wonder if you have found any relief or a therapist who's been able to help you out with pelvic floor dysfunction?

I'm in the same boat and I'm in misery I've had every test Under the Sun and I need therapy but I don't know where to begin!

I've seen a urogynecologist, this is the last doctor I've seen to verify that I do have severe pelvic floor dysfunction!

They finally referred me to therapy but I have to wait nearly two months to even get in!

Let me know how it went for you if you see this please I can send you my private email if you like!

Hi Maureen ! 

What a journey, huh ? I have been to every specialist you can think of , even had a colonoscopy! Spinal MRI’s, multiple ct scans of the groin and pelvis and a bizillion X-rays. Finally, I went to the same kind of gyno, she did her residency in  urogynocology. She said it was either one of two things happening. Post ablation syndrome, which after an excruciating exam she came to the conclusion that she was 99% sure this was pelvic floor ! Something as I mentioned my urologist suggestion but he was sooooo nonchalant about it and he thought maybe it was a UTI , which came back positive so I followed the typical amoxicillin treatment and found no relief. So here I am 4 months later, finally about 6 treatments into the pelvic floor therapy. I never even knew this kind of treatment existed and only one therapist in my area. So I told her, “sorry, but all the weight is on your shoulders now” as I was at the end of my rope in pain. The treatments are not terrible, always internal work, and some external soft tissue work. But so far, I am AMAZED. And I’m also kind of upset it took this long and so many doctors later to find something so easy could be my answer! ???? I was sooooooo sick of explaining myself to each and every Dr and getting nothing but a perscription handed to me or test ordered. My insurance is combative and challenges every order. But I have to insist to you that you try it !!!! Get out on a cancellation list if they have one. And my best advice to you, do not miss appointments and don’t wait more than 3 - 4 days  between visits. You will actually feel spasams happening while they are working on your lady parts ! (No nice way of putting that) But they are not painful, not if you’ve reached this point, as I have, you will let them do ANYTHING just for relief ! Good luck and please keep me posted ! I go tonight for my 7th treatment ! It’s a chore, but it’s toally worth it and it IS my answer finally after all this time ! 

Hi, I know this is an old post but I am experiencing the exact same thing. 4/5 years in with this now. Did you ever get it resolved? Thanks in advance, I hope youre better!
