Maybe do a little research online and see if anything comes up up about the side effects of tens. I’ve not heard that, an it has been recommended by my professionals.
Levator ani or whatever it’s called, with symptoms, seems to be uncommon.
First doc to diagnose said 5 years to go away. ???
Better but has been longer than that. I will have to look up the initial med that I took from pain management doc. Do you see a pain management doctor? Maybe helpful, if not.
Sorry about your doctors and the lack of help. I just kept looking until I found ones that would work with me.
Tough to wean off those meds…
I posted earlier about using 5 mg diazepam in the rectum. Very helpful. Especially at night.

@ch47 I saw a pain management specialist 3 years ago. After guessing around and giving me a ganglion impar nerve block, which did nothing, he gave me a pudendal nerve block cos I believed I had pudendal neuralgia, none of my specialists diagnosed, I diagnosed myself. The doctor botched the nerve block causing nerve damage making me much worse.
I asked my gastro doctor for Valium suppositories but he said he doesn’t prescribe them. Who would for me?
