Has been going on for about 3 years. Normally happens once every few months but has been happening every night for the past 5 nights.
She describes it as starting with a feeling like she has bubbles inside her and a stomach ache. She then experiences an intense burning/itching sensation which is really quite painful for her. She normally ends up in tears fidgeting about as she can't sit still. She says it sometimes comes in 'waves' but other times it's continuous. The thing I find quite bizzare is that it only really happens late at night and she's often woken up by it.
She normally sits in a warm bath for about 20minutes and it goes but this isn't helping any more. We've been to the doctors a few times, she's been examined once but only externally and the pain is inside. She's been given a course of antibiotics and been prescribed Canesten twice but neither have had any effect.
I've bought her Femfresh to wash with so she's not using any harsh soaps.
We're going back to the doctors tomorrow but i was wondering if anyone had experienced similar or had any idea what it could be?
