Hi Everyone... Sorry that I haven't posted in a while. Anyway... although things have MUCH improved like I mentioned in my last post, I am still not 100% of the way there. I find that I have good days and bad days and I haven't quite figured out what causes them. I did find out that I have a lot of food sensitivities and that I need to take care of by doing an elimination diet. Your diet can affect vestibulitis so I recommend that everyone pay attention to what they eat and see if you notice any foods causing even a slight digestive upset.
I have been having a lot of luck with the lidocaine gel and I am continuing to use that almost every time before sex. I also bought some latex gloves and have been manually stretching out the vaginal opening on a weekly basis (I wish I could get up the motivation to do this daily because I think it makes a big diference).
I wanted to recommend a book to everyone because I've been getting a lot of questions lately via email and I think this book will help.
