Anyone out there diagnosed with Pudendal Neuralgia?

Does anyone know how they, (the med world), differentiate between puedenal pain vs interstitial cystitis? I haven’t received either definitive from my clueless mayo EC care. They just keep offering me bladder installations and leave me to finding guidance via google :(. The nurses tell me “they’ve never seen a patient condition like mine at age 40.” Sorry new to Connect and not sure how this works.

There is a pudendal support group on the Internet. I learned there there is a very simple way to tell whether or not it’s pudendal pain or not. Basically, if you sit down on a toilet seat and your pain goes away, you have pudendal nerve symptoms. It’s so simple. It seems stupid but it basically is a litmus test.
