Trichimonas ping pong

I am a woman I been with my partner for 4 years, but from the first time we got together my partner and I ( 4 years ago) 5-7 days later I felt  pain inside my vagina, swelling vulva, burning sensation inside but never no smell at all  but I never went to check with the doctor but I been feeling always this reaction after we make love and even sometimes I cant do it bc is sooo swelling inside and made me go to urine sooo much too(we are Monogamous)but finally 2 years ago I mention to the Gym dr all the Symptons that I been having so she did test me for Trich twice(one in Sept and Oct of 2010) and the result for Trish(culture and pap)comeback negative so the dr said that they really dont know what i have  maybe an infection sooo they treat me but still never went away  those symt. So I still having those sensation everytime Now I been dealing with this for 4 yrs They say maybe is IC (interstitial cystitis ) but I went to the urolg dr In oct 2010 they run some painful test and he only can say is that he found that my bladder look like is Litle cut and That i cant hold that much urine so they prescrip Uribel for when I need it But nothing change NOW last week i went back to my Gym doctor i told them that same story so she did a new test again for Trisch and came back positive on Sep /2012 And also i got yeast infection, overgrow bacteria and vaginitis all this So they give me metronidazole 500, levodopa 250 and fluconaze.Can this be possible? After I been having this pain for 4 year they just show the thrisc now ?Can also been like a pin pong bc we never got treated bc we didnt know we have trich?So we  may been having this parasite active all this 4 years without been detectible bc maybe was to low and now got over populated and got detectable? Now the simptons are gone And my husband keep claiming that he is loyal and I know that I am So that s why I think he always got it but we been passing this back in fort to each other ?

It is a possiblity that you have been passing this back and forth for years.  Please make sure you and your partner are both treated.  EWH

Welcome to the Forum.   I will try to help but this is a most usual situation.  The comments that I will make represent a variety of thoughts I have.

I think the first comment I have is that I wonder which tests, the initial ones that did not see trich or the more recent one that did, is wrong.  As you state, perhaps you have had trichamonas throughout and it was missed initially and passed back and forth between the two of you or, alternatively perhaps you have only recently been found to have trich and it is not related to your problem.  I must say, standard tests for trich are well known to be inaccurate and often wrong so it possible that this is all due to trich which was missed in the past.  

Can you tell me how trichamonas was diagnosed most recently?

I am pleased to hear that treatment has made you better.  Your treatment included therapy for not only trich but also candida (a fungus) and levofloxacin which can cure many bacterial infections.  In making sure that your improvement continues, it is important to be sure that both you and your husband have been treated and that you have not had sex at a time when one of you was treated and one was not.

It is possible that trichamonas was present throughout your entire time of illness,

I realize I cannot fully explain what has happened here and I suspect that we will not know why you got better.  I hope that it continues.  EWH
