I have vulvar itch for nearly a year gp twice gave me canestan to apply and insert. Itch stops and come back.. I used to itch like crazy and some point I tear the skin.. the itch is on top of vulva and clit not under.. after skin tear the skin looks like bit like mole very tiny.. went to consult the gp about the itch and the gp diagnosed and gave me a steroid cream to apply thrice a day.. dr said if the itch doesn't stop had to do a biopsy.. has some one gone through similar situations.. I do t have any discharge or smelly or burning sensations when passing urine.. I'm extremely scared because dr said she wanted to do a biopsy.. I'm an Asian and living with one partner for 14 years with 3 children.. please someone help me.. this drives me crazy.. the skin looks bit darker I guess it's because the severe itch.. and had pimple like large bump in my lower groin..

    Lisa that's awful they wouldn't give you anything for pain im so glad you got it sorted out.  Ive just been given slow release oxycodone now so see what that does.  My vagina is so sore and dry/stinging all the time it drives me mad, and the itching im using diprobase cream and instillagel but nothing seems to help.  The doc won't prescribe anymore types of creams, im going to get onto radio team to see if there is anything else i can use.

    Good news about your PET scan. Hopefully bloods won't be too bad either.

    I know what you mean about leaving the house but i do like to try and walk/hobble outside couple times a day, and i don't want to give up driving, so see how i go.

    I wish the cancer was in a different part of the body i think it would be easier to handle, i wish we lived nearer to each other as well.

    Let me know your blood results later.

    Big hugs
