  • I hurt

    I have had some pretty severe pain with my IC for about 4 years. The pain is so bad that I had to fight for disability, and can't work. I have noticed lately that my urethra is extremely painful. It is like (sorry for the wording not sure how else to explain it,) like a knitting needle is being shoved up there and is being wiggled around. Definitely not a comfortable feeling. I have been tested for an infection and of course nothing. I am not sure what this is, but I would appreciate any input that you may have.
    Thank you
    Kirsten
