    Oh No Work!

    There is a dangerous virus being passed electronically, orally and by
    hand. This virus is called Worm-Overload-Recreational-Killer (WORK).
    If you receive WORK from any of your colleagues, your boss or anyone
    else via any means DO NOT TOUCH IT. This virus will wipe out your
    private life completely.

    If you should come into contact with WORK put your jacket on and take
    two good friends to the nearest bar. Purchase the antidote known as
    Work-Isolator-Neutralizer-Extractor (WINE) or
    Bothersome-Employer-Eliminator-Rebooter (BEER). Take the antidote
    repeatedly until WORK has been completely eliminated from your system.

    You should forward this warning to 5 friends. If you do not have 5
    friends, you have already been infected and WORK is controlling your
    life.



    I thought this was too funny. Even though we can't enjoy the wine and beer I thought everybody would still get a kick out of it. A girl in my office sent it to me

    I have been diagnoised for 6 1/2 years now. I have taken a long break from the ICN but really miss helping out my fellow IC patients and want to get back into posting.
    1st hydro 4/07 showed no visible signs of IC but tons of mast cells in all my biopsy samples which did prove IC.
    2nd hydro 4/13/09 showed dark purple glomerulations and I had a capacity of 450 cc's. This hydro proved that my IC had progressed.
    I have tried every oral medication as well as rescue instills and DMSO.

    I have been lucky enough to see Dr Hanno, the top IC specialist in PA who has told me due to the fact that I have not responded to any "standard" treatments that I have a severe, end stage case of IC with a horrible quality of life (didn't have to tell me that last part!)

          *Diagnosed with severe IC in 2004
          *Also diagnosed with PFD, fibromyalgia, chronic myofascial pain, IBS, migraines, allergies/asthma, dermatographism
          *Kept trying a million different treatments for all these things until I found what works, and I am doing okay these days with the help of a cocktail of medications and the InterStim, which was first placed in 2007. [I have had 2 revisions - one in 2010 when my battery died and had to be replaced, and one complete replacement (lead and generator) in 2012 after a fall on my stairs caused my lead to move.]
          *Current meds include Atarax (50mg at night), Lyrica (150mg twice a day), Xanax (0.5mg at night and as needed), Zanaflex (4mg at night), hydrocodone (10/325, every 6 hours as needed), Advair, Nasonex, Singulair (10mg at night), oral contraceptives, home instills containing Elmiron and Marcaine (as often as I need to do them).
