Kayde,
I don't recall if you had pelvic anchors? I had a sharp pain extending from the sacrum to the hip, just in 1 side from the anchor. In the first 2 months it was the worst, then slowly started improving. As far as the burning, which feels like a bad sunburn, yes, I still have that. It is nerve pain. I take a low dose of Neurontin at bed time, and that helps, along with Lidocaine patches, and ice. You will have all sorts of weird sensations, new aches and pains, as you heal. Each day is different, and at times very frustrating. I keep reminding myself to look back and recognize that I have made progress, albeit slowly, but progress non the less.
