help with my symptoms

can anyone help with a cause for my symptoms or have you experienced anything similar ? I had a vaginal hysterectomy and anterior and posterior repairs just over 5 weeks ago,last week I was being driven mad by terrible burning and itching around and in my vagina,so I went to my GP,when she examined me,her words were,it,s like a piece of raw meat down here and I can feel the burning from here,she took swabs for analysis and prescribed antibiotics with anti fungal cream and pessary.My symptoms have improved a little but not gone,I have phoned the surgery today for my results and been told the swabs showed nothing at all.When I asked what could be causing my symptoms the Dr said maybe the antibiotics are treating something the swabs didn't pick up,or maybe it's because I'm menopausal ? and if I still have symptoms in a week to go back.

Hi sdloxham,

I'm so sorry you're having such rough troubles with this! It's good to hear you're in touch with your doctor and getting treatment. Please do go back if you're not feeling a lot better - in my experience it helps to "stay on top" of these things. I wish I had some better advice for you. In the meantime, here's a !

I haven't had similar experiences with my hys. but wanted to say I hope you feel better soon.

If things aren't improving, definitely give your doctor another call. I hope that you are better soon.
