I have had pudendal nerve entrapment for 6 years. The first 3 were not that bad although an enough to send me to my on/gyn on multiple appointments and was told nothing was wrong. He actually went as far as telling me I should talk to my pastor. We needless to say I didn’t go back. In the first 3 years I tolerable. My family doctor concluded it was nerve and put me on several medications. Finally I was sent to a urogyn and was diagnosed. In the last 3 years I have had nerve blocks and ablation on the nerve. When that did not work I was sent to Franklin TN. I I had injections 3 times 90 days apart. I actually think I am worse. I have not had a pain free day in 3 years. OST days it is extremely bad. My doctor wants me to try one more injection just to see if it will help. He says I do not want to have entrapment surgery. Anyone reading this have any of you had the surgery. Can you tell me why he feels that way. I am so tired of pain.

As anybody looked at your spine? I had it once, but it went away when I had corticosteroid injection, and the corresponding lumbar nerve root exiting my spine.
