Well I'm about to cry.
I was on a medication that is a seizure med, called Topomax, about 2 or 3 years ago. It worked wonders for many things incluing my bladder pain, which I didn't know at the time was bladder pain.
Well, I went off it for some reason and over time my pelvic pain got worse and worse, I had a hyst, and things spiraled out of control.
Last year I asked my Gen. to put me back on the Topomax because I'd gained about 50 pounds and the Topomax makes you lose weight. She refused. I was upset.
This week I asked again and low and behold, she said YES!!!!
Well guess what?!!! My body pain is GONE GONE GONE!!!!
And my IC pain.........................almost totally GONNNNNNEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I still have some pain, but the amount of time between doses of morphine is so extended I'm really going to have to start tracking what is going on! It's a miracle!!! I'm so excited!!!
And that is only on 50mg of the Topomax!!! I still can go up to about 200mg.
Oh, and I've already lost about 10 pounds in just a few days! Crazy!
Just thought I'd share the good news. The weight is great, but the pain relief! A miracle from heaven!!!
:woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:
