After my surgery for vulva cancer where a left vulva Hymen-vulvectomy, left inguino-femoral lymph nodes, left deep femoral lymph node and left cloquet lymph node and soft tissue resection biopsy; my surgery site developed a very large hematoma and blew tne entire surgery site out. I had to heal inside out. I since have developed much scar tissues.  I wasted so much money on underclothing. Nothing worked and evetything hurt me. I finally found a ladies cotton brief. I buy them larger and they are so comfy. I mention this a while back. If you should need them you can purchase them at Womanwithin.com. 

They are called Choice-stretch-cotton-fitted-boxer-brief. They fit easy under sweats and loose fitting garnents.

    2changes, I know the woman

    2changes, I know the woman who posted this is fine, but she emailed some of us to say she would be removing herself.  

    My heart cries to hear you suffer, people really have no idea what happens during/after treatment.  Perhaps you can call the doctors office for some help on the dryness?  Maybe you can call and see if they have a patient advocate who may be able to point you in some direction?  I pray you find some comfort soon.
