  • fevers are starting to scare me

    seems like ever since i started the elmiron,ive had fevers between 100-101 degrees every night.this is baffling me. i looked on the elmiron prescribing info and didnt see fevers as a side effect..
    Newly IC diagnosed as of February 2011.

    Medications I'm on that seem to work:
    Zoloft- one once a day
    Butrans pain patch 5 mcg (THANK GOD FOR WHOEVER INVENTED THIS!SO MUCH PAIN RELIEF ITS UNREAL,I AM IN NO PAIN AT ALL UNLESS I STRESS OR SCREW UP ON THE DIET)

    Failed Meds:
    Elmiron-after 4 months,digestive side effects got to be too much
    tramadol-allergic
    DMSO treatments(5-6)
    probiotics

    THERAPIES:gardening,cooking,IC Diet,Counseling,Lots of warm baths,stress reduction,heating pad or ice packs,meditation/deep breathing,listening to relaxing music,having fun on pain free days,drinking chamomile or peppermint tea,pelvic floor physical therapy
    AROMATHERAPY-candles,incense
    Village Naturals Aches and Pains Peppermint Bath Salts
    Johnson and Johnsons Lavender Melt Away Stress Body Wash/Lotion

    ACUPUNCTURE/HERBS
    Significant pain relief so far.

    MAY TRY:yoga,swimming/hydrotherapy and anti-candida diet if i can kick my sugar addiction

    Lord, make me an instrument of your peace;
    where there is hatred, let me sow love;
    when there is injury, pardon;
    where there is doubt, faith;
    where there is despair, hope;
    where there is darkness, light;
    and where there is sadness, joy.
    Grant that I may not so much seek
    to be consoled as to console;
    to be understood, as to understand,
    to be loved as to love;
    for it is in giving that we receive,
    it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
    and it is in dying [to ourselves] that we are born to eternal life.

    Probably unrelated to the Elmiron. Defnitely see your doctor, regardless.

      Would definitely see your doc or at least call in AM. Could be working on an infection. Any other symptoms? Never heard of Elmiron causing fever, but guess anything is possible. If you are allergic to it, maybe that's it. But you need to speak with doctor and get to the bottom of it. Good luck, let us know. Jill, wife of Bob

          go see a doctor fevers are usually a sign of an unwanted virus or infection.

            I don't think its the elmiron. You've got something else going on, maybe a uti? maybe a virus? something else?? Go see your doctor today as this is def not normal.
