This will have to be a quick update from my couch. This past Thursday I got my tonsils out, so I've been spending most of my time sleeping or lying down.
I was on antibiotics so much pre-surgery, that I did in fact get a yeast infection on Tuesday. I tried to eat as much yogurt and pro-biodics as possible, but it looks like I still can't catch a break. The good news is I diagnosed myself, and just went into the health center on campus to get it confirmed. Luckily I could still get the surgery on Thursday.
So everything is on a hold right now. Obviously no dilator exercises with a yeast infection. No working out after surgery. I'm just catching up on some couch time for two weeks. I've gotten a few emails in the past couple of days, I wanted to let everyone know that I am getting back to you. Just give me a few days to get back into action.
I was a chronic pelvic pain patient who wrote about my health struggles for 7 years. After successful treatment and returning to school, I am about to become a women's health physical therapist. Some estimate 5% of women as well as millions of men will experience pelvic pain in their lifetime, yet they are under-researched, misdiagnosed, and misunderstood. In the midst of rapidly evolving medical discoveries and technology, priority needs to be given to pelvic pain.

of their freedom.
How do they learn it?
They fall, and falling,
they are given wings."
