OK, so I know I'm not the only one on here eith IC but it might be something to consider, especially if you feel a lot like you have really bad menstrul cramps, but it's not time, or you don't have periods, and if you feel like you have to go a lot, IC is actually intercticial cystitis, where the lining of the bladder thins and your bladder can sometimes have ulcers and is inflamed, there is a test called the potasium test or something like that, they put poatsium directly into your bladder via cathider, and if youhaver it the potasium will hurt your bladder very bad, I came off the table! But if you feel like you have uti's a lot, but nothing gets rid of it, or the tests are negative PLEASE have this checked out , it's very often mis diagnosed or ignored, soooo PLEASE talk to the primary and see a urologist, anti spasmotics control the bladder from having to constantly feel like it needs to empty , like a muscle relaxer but for your bladder, this condition can be very painful, and I have read that it can go right along with the Fibro! I hope this info helps, it can be treated symptom wise but not sure about cured, chnges in iet can help as well and there is a lot of info on the web. Have a good night all!! |
"When I first came to MDJ, I was in a very dark place, and feeling quite alone, I don't know how I found this site, but I have been very grateful ever since, all of you have offered insight to the illness of Bipolar and the other things going on with me, being here has allowed me to find friends, and to feel safe in discussing things that I would never have shared before.
