I am pretty sure I have IC. I went to my gyn hoping to hear something different but she also suspects IC. I have an appt with a Uro in 2 weeks but until then, I need some perspective. My symptoms are over 2 weeks straight of urgency and a burning feeling. it started at Thanksgiving, went away and came back 2 x before this last time that hasn't stopped. Yesterday was ok and Saturday- I was almost normal- but it keeps coming back. when it is bad- I feel like I will go insane.
I have 3 kids- 7,5 and only 10 months and I just feel like i can't cope with this. I am so scared that i will feel like this forever and never have sex with my wonderful loving husband and make everyone around me miserable. I was already on a very restricted diet trying to pinpoint allergens that were affecting my baby through breastmilk and now adding this IC diet is making my life that much more complicated. I keep losing weight and I am down to a size 2.
I have suspicions that I may have a salicylate sensitivity that is exacerbating this so I am also trying to keep out high salicylate foods. I may have od'd on apple cider vinegar, tea and other foods that hurt. My head is spinning and i feel so alone.
Since I felt good Saturday, we tried some intimacy (not vaginal penetration) and I was so bad on sunday. Is my life with husband forever changed?
I know I haven't been diagnosed yet but what else could this be?
