2. She found it hard to describe the sensations but used terms like vibrating, tingling, painful, throbbing, pulsating and numbness in vagina & surrounding regions. There was a sense of imminent #orgasm. Sexual activity & orgasm, however, did not relieve her symptoms.
3. Symptoms got worse on sitting and on lying down, but were lesser on standing or walking. Tight clothing or underwear aggravated her symptoms. She also had #pain in both legs, and felt the urge to constantly move her legs to reduce pain & discomfort (in legs & feet).
