A hug in times of stress.
Prayer in times of crisis
Encouragement in times of doubt.
A laugh in times of sadness.
A smile in times of heartache.
Hope in times of hopelessness.
Assurance in times of fear.
A reminder of the good things in life in times of depression.
And most importantly, love when I need it the most. MDJ has become like a family to me. I have priceless friends that I will hold in my heart and love forever. MDJ is a place of safety, when I know I can be myself and that I am loved. Thank you all SO much, you mean the world to me." (TalithaCumi)

and hoping to make great friends and learn a lot about this new condition. I have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia and am newly diagnosed with interstitial cystitis. This occurred after I found a doctor who told me he thought I was being misdiagnosed for UTIs which averaged once a month and were coupled with at least two weeks of various antibiotics that never seemed to clear anything.

I look forward to meeting all of you great people and learning as much as I can about IC.

Thanks!
