hi, I am new to the message boards also.....
I am suffering with unbearable pain also! My uro has given me almost every treatment out there for IC- I have had the hydro/bladder biopsy, several DMSO treatments....Everything that I have had done that has involved touching or testing anywhere near my urethra, just makes my bladder worse...I am now being treated for a bladder infection from my regular fam doc- and she prescribed Cipro---
It has not taken away the burning or pain and I am almost at the end of my 10 day course with that. It has just given me really bad diarhea, and I have irritable bowel syndrome, which has been aggravated by this latest treatment! I am almost at the point of taking a jump off of the nearest bridge,,,because nobody understands the intensity of this pain,,,especially male docs
who have probably never had a bladder infection......I am still hanging on to the outside edge of that bridge,,I know that is the last thing I really want to do,,,but the pain is unbearable....My uro refuses to presribe vicodin or any substance that has a narcotic attatched to it's name....my fam doc did prescribe some vicodin for me but I know that she will not want to refill it once it is gone..... Any suggestions are welcomed...
