Thought I would post a quick update for anyone interested
Saw the gynaecologist this morning and as expected he confirmed the Atrophy (so all my prayers have gone unheard and it wasn’t a mistake 🤦♀️ I do have it) … but on the positive he says my medication routine is suitable suggested a few tweaks which he said “might”help including a mild steroid cream for external use and thinks it all should start to kick in soon. He’s arranging for me to see the physiotherapist to make sure I’m doing the pelvic floor exercises properly. Also, the double prolapse my GP said I had,is in fact a single one , bowel only grade 2 and bladder is fine,so it’s the Atrophy causing the symptoms
So I suppose that’s a good thing. He has offered to surgically repair the prolapse if I want and told me to have a think and let him know as if it’s not causing a problem at the moment there’s no rush and it’s a bit of a long haul operation. So at least I know more today than yesterday. It wasn’t the resolution I wanted, I clung onto the hope that I had raging thrush and a UTI, but that’s life. I have to concentrate now on getting the beast under control and at least I know my bits are not going to fall out if I cough. So not a good day, but not a bad one either
