Vin and cin

Hi Kerby,

I am sorry that you have been suffering with VIN and CIN. I also have been suffering with VINs for a couple of years and had surgeries five times so far. I have exact same symptoms like yours. I have VIN2/3 on all around opening of my vagina that is itchy, sore and burning when I urinate. I can see skin is dark red. I do not have flare up, I have those symptoms constantly, but sometimes gets minor. I also have severe vaginal dryness from radiation (had vaginal cancer 2014) , so it is really not comfortable. I tried to use moisturizer but those stings because of VIN.

There is not much things you can do for the symptoms, unfortunately only you can do is having surgery and get removed all VINs. Then you should feel much better after healing. . I will see my GY oncology in two weeks, then probably will have surgery after that. I really want those itchy and sore to be gone!

I hope yours is not as bad as mine. Best wishes

Hi Kuma

Thank you for replying to me. So sorry to hear what you are going through and what you have previously been through. My symptoms are there constant but seem to flare up worse around my monthly cycle, which is similar to yours where it stings when I urinate and is mad itchy inside.  I had a biopsy taken from my perineum as that’s where the consultant noticed the changes and when I had my follow up she said the biopsy removed the vin that was there, and that my vulva looked normal at that time. I have managed to get in to see her this Thursday due to the symptoms I have started getting again, so hopefully I can get sorted and it relieves my symptoms.

I hope you manage to finally get sorted when you see your consultant in two weeks and it relieves your symptoms to.
