    Oh yuck... I've had a lot of work stuff done down there. Hope the tests turn out ok. Maybe w/stitches, or post stitches she would let you do clean sitz baths for comfort? Some things it really helps. Other things the doc doesn't want that. Hope you heal soon. M

    Well, so far not so good. I think I popped a stitch & am starting an infection. Hurts like crazy. See the doctor tomorrow. Ugh.

    Oh gee, did I mention that I was recently certified as a spinning instructor? And there are great positions being filled in a private studio right now?

    Grrr....

    If you think its infected phone him today if he has a holiday/weekend service. Most docs will phone in a presc. on a holiday even if he can't see you until tomorrow. Better to nip an infection in the bud!

    Somehow docs don't understand the word "sensitive" for that "area." I had pre-cancer cells removed from my cervix by electrified loop of wire a few years ago. They put a bunch of shots, waited, and then said that it should be warm but to say something if there was pain. It was all warm, uh, warm, owOW OW OW!!! So they put in a few more shots.

    Fingers crossed for your good results.

    Saw the gyn - said everything looks OK - so why does it hurt?? Well, it's a sensitive area (duh!!) and the stitches will fall out by themselves. OK to bike when it doesn't hurt anymore.

    The good news is - the biopsy came back OK. Just a couple of moles. They could have happily co-existed and I'd be riding today.

    Sigh...

    Thanks for everybody's advice & well wishes.

    That's great news!!! So glad you got them checked out though, at least you won't have to worry about them anymore.
