    ICN Wins Wellsphere Award!

    This month I was also notified that the ICN and I were honored with a 2011 Wellsphere Health Award. This award recognizes the top health organizations and individuals that make an extraordinary impact on the lives of patients.The award program recognize those entities that move forward the overall progress of such issues as health research, understanding, empathy, inspiration, awareness, accessibility, and networking. Other honorees this year included: Kaiser Permanente Educational Theatre Programs, the California Lyme Disease Associatio, Mentor Connect, Live Life then Give Life (UK Charity) and others. I am thrilled to receive this recognition and thank Wellsphere for the honor!

    Yay! - Jill

    Congratulations!!!!

    Congratulations to you Jill! You absolutely deserve this prestigous award and to formally recognized and honored. But, they have to get in the back of a very long line of your admirers! After all, we have known for years how very special you are!

    Congratulations again!

    Hugs,

    I am not a medical professional. I do not give medical advice. In all cases, I urge you to talk to your Dr. about your treatment options.

    D/Xed 2003 with IC. Also have the co-existing condtions of VV, Vulvadynia, Lupus, Fibro, GERD, CPP, Endo, & Adhesions, and Depression

    Meds: Estrogel (due to total Hyster)
    The meds r/xed by my Pain Dr. from the Pain Clinic are as follows: Morphine ER and IR, Baclofen, and Lyrica and Seroquel (used off-label as a sleeping pill, but it also helps with depression)

    (I listed my meds in case someone reading this has been told like so many ICers that Drs dont r/x pain meds for IC.) I want you to know that there ARE tons of us who are also dealing w/this disease and the pain and many of us ARE on pain meds.)
