I'm 23 and have contracte GH for the first time. Last year I had two surgeries on my kidneys and neither hurt the way this does. My sores are at the top of my labia and just to either side and to pee is so excruciating I scream. I also have sores around my back passage which are just as horrendous. I'm avoiding eating and drinking as going to the toilet is such a nightmare. The only relief I get when peeing is to sit in the bath. But this can't go on forever I have to go back to work. I'm walking like a duck I can't stand up or sit down too quickly it's agonising. I've been on tablets since yesterday from the doctor but not feeling any relief. Please someone guide me as to when I might get some relief. I haven't been given a gel I've just been putting sudocrem on the sores. The worst part of this whole this is the week before I broke out I met someone who I really like I feel I've fucked up any chance how do I tell them that I have this :'( I can accept that I've got GH I just wish some of the pain would stop and I'm crying non stop.
You are not alone, many things that have been advised to use seem to cause more pain for me. The only thing that seems to calm the soreness down is to use talc powder. And as for the weeing, keep a bottle of water and as you wee pour it over the area as this will dilute the acidity. It will get better, and you will forget you have GH, I thought it was the end of the world, but now happy in a relationship. As long as you explain the condition and don't make out its such a big deal, and make sure you use contraceptives then you will be fine!
