Hi Judy,I have already had 2 pudendal nerve blocks and 2 ct guided nerve blocks, which all gave me very short term relief. Where are you going for decompression surgery? Thank You for your reply.

I live in West Wickham, Kent (Greater London) and would love to meet up with other members who are suffering from PN to meet up and discuss treatments and things we've found helpful. I can easily get to London if you or other members would be able to do that.

Marion,thank you! After finding a website in US,I have tried to put this monster OUTTHERE on anything I could write on.We searched,along with two specialist,to find anything with the symptoms.took three years!all not by chance!but by God. That's why I answer all of these letters from fellow sufferers! Ifound it impossible to find anyone who knew the word! Go on line to a site accepting blogs,I searched Levator or Pudental.Post to any and everyone out there.Its staggering how many there are of us.My ortho thought only125 in the US.. My mission also is to yell it out.weneed to get the med field to realize this monster. I had a top university surgeon to tell me ,see aPSCHYIATRIST!! Praise GOD I found help! Also,I am set to have suogery in Minnesota on Dec11. All out there please pray it will help! Judy r
