The New Official Pain Meter
- 27 year old student
- Had symptoms since I was 5
- Been on forums since '07, knew I had this since then, received mild treatment without true diagnosis due to anxiety. Diagnosed by symptoms on 4/08/11.
- Had first horrible flare in 07, bad doctors, had to research IC myself to clue in onto what it was. After following the diet I went into remission.
- Big flare in 09 due to an untreated bladder infection. Went back into remission in 2012.
- Symptoms returned 4/1/15. All of my remissions have ended in April-May or September-October. It sounds like a connection to seasonal allergies to me..
Currently: Continuous Birth Control, vaginal valium (10/6/11), Elmiron (4/08/11), UTA (4/08/11), continuous Trimethoprim for infections (10/6/11), Heating pad, Benedryl, harsh diet
What I know works: Benedryl, diet, birth control, UTA, valium, ditropan, soma
What didn't work: Elavil, vistaril (12/22)
Tags: None
