Hello all- An update on this condition...someone replied that it sounded like a fancy name for a bad bike fit. It is the end of Jan., 2008. I have not ridden my bike since mid-September and am still in excruciating pain. I am taking several medications for nerve pain and have had one steroid injection with no relief. There are several Pelvic Pain centers throughout the country that help women (and some men) with this condition. It is real and not a fancy name for anything.
If you have chronic pain in the perenial area, don't write it off as just saddle sores as I did. I hope that someday I can ride again, but right now just sitting is painful. As background, I increased my mileage from 125-150 miles/week to close to 200 miles/week. I also lost weight during this time. These things may have been the staw that broke the camels back (so to speak) that made this nerve become inflamed. Be careful out there and have fun.
