Shore Vulvodynia Support Group

                                 Shore Vulvodynia Support Group

      Welcome to the Shore Vulvodynia Support Group's Web Page.  We are happy that you are visiting our part of the world today.  Our web site will contain  up-to-date links of recent information on vulvodynia as well as lists of medical professionals who deal with our syndrome.  We will need everyone's help with their own information on vulvodynia and the doctors that they feel are adequately informed on vulvodynia.   We  hope that we can begin Chat Rooms so you can join in on chats.  Hopefully, we will be able to have chats going on throughout the day and night  so that no one will ever feel isolated or alone with our so-called  ... "all in your head" ...  pain.  We welcome women onto our site from all over the world and  would love to hear from and about each one of you, your problem and your treatment.   

We are  here for support, kindness, comfort, love and trust  and we will treat everyone as an equal for vulvodynia or vulvae  pain. Today, March 5, 2000,  we have taken our very first step with hopes to accomplish a warm home on the internet that one can visit, gain a bit of knowledge or make a new friend, with a hot cup of coffee or tea, anytime of the day or night.  While looking through our site, I will give you  a  background on the original SVSG.  We were/are a group of  women from mid-coastal New Jersey.   SVSG came about six years ago with a few of us.  We have grown and met/meet regularly with monthly support meetings and dinners.  At our meetings, we have guest speakers from medical fields who now know about and deal with patients of this type of pain.   We  have now grown to a support group of over 35 women who range in ages from young twenties through seventies, from all parts of New Jersey!  We know that each one of us can call another, at any given time, and  there is always an ear to listen.  Through our support, trust and love, we now have become  more than just a support group - we are now a loving, trusting, caring group of friends.  We have grown, laughed, cried and found comfort in each other - knowing that we are always there for each other no matter what the cause.  Let's hope we can find the same in our home on the net. 

Enjoy and be well.

The SVSG has stopped formal meetings until further notice. However, we are always available to talk at a local restaurant while dining or having a cup of coffee. For more information contact Ellen @ eljohnson@optonline.net or Laura @ pinkmair@verizon.net
