Race; Keep a detailed log to show your doc and make him/her LOOK. daily (go back if you have to and kinda fudge but not make it worse than it is) document pain levels on a scale of 1-10...I do this daily/nightly..you need to do it more. Do the same with your emotions. And the same with the effort to urinate. I don't have probs with that except after my bladder installations (then I get the joy of cathing myself..got to do that yesterday...) I'm not sure how close you are to a big city in Mississippi (so nice to have that little rhyme from childhood to remember spelling that state...ha, ha) or if you are closer to La, Ga, ..I should know the geography better, I was born and raised in S.C....but you need the help of someone who treats SEVERE IC. Not just provide irritation relief for those with milder cases (not dissing milder cases, but the severe ones are incapacitating...I haven't taught in 4 years and it kills me..)
Gotta go pick my youngest up...She's with in my allowable driving distance..1/2 mile. (there are some things you give up with the pain relief)
Please, Make a journal.These linear doctor types respond to written documentation. If you can buy a measuring cup and measure how much each void is, that will help as well. ( if you have to get up 18 times in 24 hours to pee 30 cc's, there is a definate prob.....that did it for me.)
Good luck.
