What is Interstitial Cystitis?

What is Interstitial Cystitis?


Interstitial Cystitis is the worst bladder infection you've ever had, except no bacteria is present, there is no cure, many foods make it worse, and separate treatments have maybe 1/3 of a chance of helping. The only true "treatment" is treating the pain, as its usually the only thing that will work. Even patients who've had their bladders removed still experience the pain. Doctors don't know what causes it or how to get rid of it but have many theories.



Need to find a doctor in your area who actually knows how to deal with IC humanely? Click here.

These are the new guidelines for diagnosing IC. If your doctor isn't using these then I suggest you find a new one who keeps up to date.

You can find the IC safe collaborated recipes between me and my step dad here.

Finals

Felt pretty good yesterday. Today I'm just using heating pad as a caution since I need to study for my first final which is.. tomorrow. I'll just hope my papers were good enough to get me over the hill. Really, they didn't tell us a thing until before Thanksgiving so we were forced to do our papers then (3 classes) and turn it in, and only have 1 week of class, and then finals (2 classes). I'll play a game to wake myself up with for a bit.. have a little fun.. then go lay down and study.

I encourage open discussion. There is a lot for us to learn from each other.
