Quote: I also used to take evavil at 150 mg for the pain I had with vulvadoina S/P?. I would go months without any pain. I stablized at 75mg but after 5 years I ended up at 150mg. Stress was a majior trigger for my vulvadonia. It is gone now after I had my daughter it never came back. I am thinking it might help the pain from this to. The only reason i haven't brought it up to my doctor is I gained a ton of weight on it and you can't be pregnant on it. I am not sure how much more of this I can take so we may just decide to thank god for our daughter and stop trying I don't know. just wanted to share with some else on evail. It did make me sleep like the living dead to.
Heather, that's interesting. I've heard of vulva-whatever. Does NOT sound like fun. I think AD's are being prescribed more and more for their pain-relieving effect, which I think is great. The more doctors understand the science of pain and how best to treat it, the better. They've started calling it the Fifth Vital Sign, after heart rate, temperature, etc. Or Sixth?! Fibro frog ribbit.
I haven't gained any weight to speak of. Maybe 5 pounds, but by counting calories religiously I've lost them. But yes, they sure make me sleep nice and soundly!!
