As many as 28% of women around the world suffer from vulvodynia. If you’re thinking, “Wow, that’s a lot,” you are correct. That’s almost a third of women suffering from vulvodynia, or 14% out of the total population globally. Now, if you’re thinking, “What on Earth is vulvodynia, and why haven’t I heard about it before if so many people are affected by it?”, those are also some valid questions. Before I get into the details of what exactly it is, I’d like to share a story to introduce vulvodynia to you. In the summer of 2012, a woman named Céline began to suffer from a prolonged vaginal yeast infection that would return over and over and over again. During this time, a burning pain developed in her vulva that grew increasingly worse. She tried numerous creams and pills for her yeast infection, but they didn’t help; if anything, they made it worse, and made the pain worse as well.

Despite its high prevalence, not many people are aware of vulvodynia’s existence, and I hadn’t even heard its name practically until I started working in a research facility to study it. In short, vulvodynia is a poorly understood, common, chronic and debilitating pain condition that affects the vulvar area. There are two main types of vulvodynia: generalized, which exhibits a more diffuse pain throughout the pelvic area, and localized, which has the pain confined to the vulvar vestibule, a part of the vulva between the labia minora. The exact cause of the condition is unknown, but it likely involves multiple risk factors, including genetics, allergies or other sensitivities, a history of infection or injury, or an increased density of nerves in the vaginal area. Because it is not well understood, diagnosis of vulvodynia occurs by ruling out all other possible causes and with the pain happening for at least three months – a long time for someone who is actually suffering from
Neyman v. Doshi Diagnostic Imaging Services presents a case between the plaintiff, the spouse of a deceased breast cancer patient, and her treating physician, Dr. Leonid Sorkin, and Doshi Diagnostic Imaging Services. The plaintiff’s counsel argues that Dr. Sorkin deviated from the standard of care and therefore delayed the patient’s diagnosis and treatment which affected her prognosis (Neyman v. Doshi, 2017). The plaintiff’s position against Doshi Diagnostic was that the radiologist should have suggested to Dr. Sorkin that a mammogram be performed as a follow-up to the negative findings on the sonogram (Neyman v. Doshi, 2017). On March 6, 2016, Olena Neyman presented to Dr. Sorkin with the complaint of left nipple discharge, yellowish green in color and pus-like (Neyman v. Doshi, 2017).

Saint Apollonia is not one of the most well known saints out there, but for me she is one ofthe most common saints in my heart and mind. Saint Apollonia's death occurred in the year 249 in Alexandria, Egypt, and her feast day is celebrated February ninth. Saint Apollonia is the patron saint of dental diseases and is often called upon by those who suffer from toothache. She is often depicted with a golden tooth at the end of a necklace and is holding a pair of pincers with a tooth in them.

A long time ago, in a place very close hidden in the clouds lived the olympians. To start off let's just say Poseidon did some pretty bad things to Eileithyia and in the end Poseidon got himself cursed by Eileithyia. Let me inform you on some of these people, Poseidon as you may know is one of the 12 olympians and is The god of the sea son of Titans Cronus and Rhea.
