I feel like im falling apart (personal TMI)

in October 2011 Moms

Warning I'm complaining about my private parts. 

Three weeks ago DH and I went all baby making crazy and did it like rabbits. After the 5th day I was swore so we stopped.

Two days after that I was extremely itchy down in that area and was advised to go get monistat and wait 7 days for it to clear up... on the 8th day I went into my Doctors office and got swabbed for all sorts of crap.

That was Last Monday and I never received a call from the tests so I assume they were negative for anything (yeast infection,BV etc).

Im still itchy and now I have two swollen lymph nodes one of each side of my pelvic area. They are painful and annoying. 

Thats all... I may never have sex again.. 

Oh And I am very mad at my OB for not having anyone call me to at least say I was free and clear or give me some damn advice.

    I've totally been there,

    I would call your OB office tomorrow morning and demand some results. That's insensitive to not call you at least to follow up.

    Ouch! I just wish I had an ounce of libido nowadays. Poor DH. But seriously, I don't get that "we only call if you have something wrong" thing. I always think what if they've tried to call me and my phone didn't show it or some ridiculous story I've made up in my mind. I always call and ask regardless.

    Maybe try some good old cortisone? You can use that for "personal itching" if you think the area is just irritated. I'd be a little concerned that it didn't go away after all this time though. Seems like there must be something going on besides just irritation from the friction.

    Yes, I would call to follow up as well. Sorry Mrs G, that sucks. I have no real advice since you already tried all I've got up my sleeve. 

     

    I hope the sex was worth it.

    This!  That and worms response - must've been pretty epic sex!

    Have you tried soaking in a tub with some epsom salt and witch hazel or a sitz bath of sorts? That's all I've got besides what has already been advised.  Sorry you're uncomfortable - definitely call your doctor.

    Just thought of something.... Have you tried ice? I sat on ice packs for a while when I got pregnant with Aidan. Things got swollen and itchy/burny down there for some reason. It went away after a while but ice packs were my best friends!

    Re: the swollen lymph nodes may be bartholin gland cysts and they suck! Take really hot shallow bath for relief. I'm sorry about all your troubles!
