Hi My name is Lynne & I live in Sydney Australia. I have just been diagnosed with LPHS after many tests, after spending two weeks in hospital because the pain was so bad I also had very severe cramping. Since leaving the hospital about two weeks ago I have seen my GP who said it would be a good idea for me to go to the pain management clinic,after filling in many forms for them they have said it will be at least 3 months before I get in. I would really like to know what I am supposed to do in the meantime, I am in so much pain I don't want to go back into the hospital again. I was wondering if I go back to my GP is there anything he might be able to give me whilst I am waiting. I went into hospital about 7 years ago with the same thing but it has only been after the pain returned this time & all the good work that was done in the hospital that I finally have a diagnosis it is just a shame the this condition seems to be so rare that there doesn't seem to be many treatments out there. I am 44 & love to go out & enjoy my life so I would love to get this thing under control if anyone knows of anything that could help me I would appreciate it.?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" />
