Lightbulb here are some links to look at...

http://www.med-owl.com/health/Vulvod...ates-Diet.html

http://www.branwen.com/rowan/oxalate.htm

People who have used antibiotics heavily in the past, lose some beneficial bacteria in the bowel that complex oxalate from our diet. When oxalates increase, then kidney stones increase,
and other things happen, it is believed, like vulvodynia.

The medications you are on are typically used for neuropathies, and fibro type symptoms. Some doctors believe that some neuropathies are centrally mediated in the brain...hence the antidepressants. The Neurontin is for peripheral pain issues.
Vulvodynia has been grouped with Fibromyalgia in some
therapeutic handbooks. Whether that is really accurate is not proven yet.
