Just thought I'd add a quick update:
I had my post-op visit with my gyn yesterday. The healing is going well. The stitches haven't dissolved; the gyn says they will probably start falling out in a couple days.
I also found out that I have a slight bacterial infection. (That could explain why it was so itchy down there...) It should be cured with a short course of antibiotics.
Unfortunately, the intense discomfort has not gone away. I still seized up during the exam, and even only half-inserting a Q-tip for a culture was incredibly uncomfortable and brought me near to tears. It wasn't quite painful, but it still felt awful. I've still got quite a ways to go before being fully adjusted, apparently.
