Michelle Living. After more than 10 years of facing this challenge, I now understand that Vulvodynia has made me a better person. I’m so glad I persevered. It’s a lesson I did not choose to learn. If I could turn back time and prevent it, I still would. I think we all would! But I can honestly say I have been truly blessed on this road toward finding healing. My advice to other women is, “Don’t give up!”
