The book we should all have

Here is a place for social chats with special attention to support and non medical discussions. We need a place to chill out, where we can distract from our pain and enjoy lighter moments, share a joke or funny moment with others.

The book we should all have

Post by kat »

Living with Pudendal Neuralgia by Vanessa Frank

This is the book each one of us should have been handed the first day we heard the words pudendal neuralgia.
It explains everything we are all going through. It is helping me understand my body and how to explain it better to doctors and family.
I highly recommend it!

Kathy;
ABSOLUTELY!!! I bought it as soon as it was released, last Dec. When I saw Dr. Quesada last Sept, he was telling me about the book and I said, I HAVE IT! He feels it's very helpful and I do too. It especially helped me with understanding what the hell I'm taking for drugs. Since I never "did" them, I'm afraid of taking to much. Therefore, I sometimes end up with more pain than I need to be in.
Keep up the good posting.
