Hey, guys. After 6 years, I was finally diagnosed with pelvic floor dysfunction- specifically, my levator muscle is confused and no longer functions correctly- it tightens randomly, causing discomfort, then goes into spasm, which is very painful. The doctors think it happened because of holding it when I needed to go to the bathroom (due to frequent need from Crohn's), which caused me to tighten the muscle. Now the muscle is confused, as I said, and also weak. I've been doing physical therapy to strengthen and retrain it, and also made adjustments to my diet and such to help (I get more spasms with loose stools).
I was just wondering if anyone else had been diagnosed with any form of pelvic floor dysfunction, and what your experience has been?
Thanks!
