Neuroproliferative Vestibulodynia related to/ caused by herniated disc in lumbar spine?

Hello ladies, I am waiting for an appointment with my obgyn for further diagnosis, just curious if anyone else here has neuroproliferative vesituboldyina that was caused by a herniated disc in the lumbar spine (lower back)?

For me it started six weeks ago with what I thought was a vaginal infection. I ended up being over prescribed different anti fungal treatments, each doctor just seeing all the inflammation and prescribing more anti fungals and Flagyl.

Eventually the gynae eliminated infection/ STI/ virus and diagnosed me with Vestibulodynia.

But what confuses me is that the initial pain that we thought was an infection is the same burning pain I have now.

I cannot touch the area at all, 1 - 11 o clock.

I have noticed that when I sit down my feet get pins and needles.

I also have a dull pins and needles sensation in my vagina. I'm wondering what the likelihood is that I may have a slipped disc causing it.

Any anecdotal advice would be encouraging.

MRI's are very expensive where I live, I do not have medical aid.

Also - to the ladies that have had a 1-11 o clock vestibulectomy, did you find relief afterwards?

I need hope :(
