Hi all! 

My names Cheryl. I had vulva cancer 4 years ago, and I have been clear since. My question is that I'm experiencing lots of pains in at the tops of my legs, and where the surgery was done. I've had it checked, and it isn't cancer. I've been told it's nerve damage. Any idea if this is a permanent thing and if anyone suffers from this, how you remedy it? It's making me sad. Obviously I'd rather have this than cancer! But I'm quite uncomfortable. 


Thanks for any help or advice you can give!!! X

    Medway, you are so kind for saying those sweet words. I am not always positive but like to spread my smile whenever I can. I really think it helps because of my amazing friends and family. Also, I love this site. I am on another one from the US too and my contribution is now to share tips and answer questions as best I can in order to help others get through this nightmare.

    Thanks for my hug :)

    Hi Cheryl,

    I'm taking Pregabalin (25mg ) and  Vitamin B complex - ( it's working for me)  .  Sometimes taking 2 capsules at night time.

    GP offered to increase dose but at this stage I didn't take an offer saving for the raining day Slight smile

    All the best !!!
