Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Could My Ongoing Pelvic Pain And Discharge Mean My PID Was Misdiagnosed Or Not Fully Treated?
I was diagnosed with Pelvic inflammatory disease, but dont have any STDs. My symptoms were painful intercourse, sharp pelvic pain that comes on suddenly and lasts about a minute or two, (it happens maybe once a day but always goes away, sometimes it happens with bowel movements,) bad odor/discharge, and my cervix is inflammed. These have been going on for a year. The doctor only did a pelvic exam and pap smear and urinalysis. No sonograms. I was put on antibiotics for STDs but my condition hasn t improved and my doctor isnt helping and insists itll go away on it s own. I wanted to get a second opinion and see if they misdiagnosed me, or if it s normal for me to still be having symptoms after the two week antibiotics.
