I live in Orlando Jamie...unfortunately there aren't a lot of great doctors in the area that are PN aware. I currently see Dr. G. Lamvu and she is on the board for the IPPS and is PN aware. She is friendly and helpful so you may use her as an option for helping you deal with your neuralgia.

Have you seen any positive results from your botox injections yet?

Pain started suddenly April 2010.
3T MRI w/ Dr. Potter, January 2011 shows bilateral impingement of the dorsal nerve of the clitoris.

Unsure what to do next because my pelvis is a mess.
