Hi,
I am new here. I was just diagnosed with IC on Thursday and am feeling completely overwhelmed. I have been feeling bad for over a month and my uro came to the conclusion Thursday that I have IC. Right now I am on Enablex and it helps a little, but right now I am having some really bad spasms and burning. I use a heating pad alot and thermacare pads at work. I have been hanging in there, but don't feel like I have been doing a very good job at it.
How did everybody get by at first? I people tell me that "well at least it isn't cancer" and "that isn't that bad of news". It isn't great news, its good to know what is wrong, but to be told your going to have this forever doesn't exactly make me want to get up and dance. I guess I just need advice, encouragment, wisdom from you more experienced people cause right now I just feel bummed about the whole thing.
Thanks
