Need recommendations for medical professionals in Washington State

[Esmerelda]

I live in Washington state, and have Interstitial Cystitis and Pelvic Floor Dysfunction. I also appear to have Pudendal Neuralgia (I diagnosed it on my own and haven't undergone tests to confirm it, but I do have a physical therapist with pudendal neuralgia experience, and she also strongly believes I'm a classic case of PN).

I'm searching for medical professionals to help me, but am at a loss as to who to go to, or even what kind of medical professionals I need to seek out. I live in western Washington state, and desperately need recommendations for my area. I feel completely and utterly lost and alone in this.

If you live in Washington and can give me advice, please, please do.

I believe I need to potentially find:
* Neurologists
* Urologists
* Urogynecologists
* Rheumatologists
* Anyone with experience with my conditions

P.S.
My physical therapist is a wonderful woman named Claudette Wheeler, and she works in the Poulsbo branch of the Kitsap Physical Therapy offices. She has experience treating pudendal neuralgia and is FABULOUS at what she does. So if you're in the area and need similar help, contact her!

If you scroll to the top of this page and click on "Professionals" you may find someone in Washington who is near you. Have you talked with your primary care doc about specialists? I have found that to work very well for me.

I wish I could help. I was living in washington. That is where I grew up. I was seeing a great urologist back in 2006. But it appears he has finally retired.. He was very old and had already once come back from retirement. I wish you luck. Try looking into going to the UW they have great urologists over there I have also seen one there but can not remember his name.
I wish you luck I know how hard finding the right doctor can be as I suffer from many different health issues also
Goodluck and hope you find the right doctor soon.

Esmerelda, Would she help diagnose PFD? We don't really have anyone here in thetri-cities that deals with IC stuff
