Returning to Tulsa!
We’ve been sharing the journey that our founder, Stephanie, has been on. She’s been looking for answers for more than a decade, but she’s made more progress toward answers in the last 16 months than in the previous 10 years combined, thanks to Dr. Corey Babb! She’s seen him for nerve blocks, pelvic floor Botox, multiple virtual appointments, and now she’s returning to Tulsa for a biopsy!
Learning to Advocate for Yourself
Dr. Corey Babb made a video recently answering a question about vaginismus & pelvic exams. While he appears to address & instruct providers in the first part of the video, he offers some hope for patients in the latter part of the video. At the end, he offers a mic drop: Patients have the right to say,”No, I’m not going to have an exam today.”
Stephanie’s Journey Continues
After her trip to Tulsa in October, Stephanie met with Dr. Babb for her virtual post-op. During that appointment, Dr. Babb asked her to have a local gynecologist run a test for him. Stephanie scheduled an appointment for December 11th with a local OBGYN who was recommended by her primary care doctor. However, her symptoms got worse over Thanksgiving week, and she ended up at Urgent Care on Black Friday. You may not know this, but urgent care facilities, as well as emergency rooms, are notorious in the chronic pain world for not helping, and gaslighting patients.
