    Congee

    9 cups of water
    1 cup of brown rice
    1-2 eggs
    Any kind of meat with bones
    Rosemary
    Fennel seeds
    Coriander
    Basil


    Put rice, meat, and water in pot and cook on low to medium low fire. Add seasoning to taste, I put in a tablespoon each but I think I over-spiced it though it came out good anyway. Add egg. Cook for a very long time. 2-3 hours, rice needs to be really soft and come apart easily like a porridge. White rice probably won't take as long to cook.
    • 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)

    sounds good! What kind of meat do you usually use?
    Daughter your faith has made you well,go in peace, and be healed of your disease.(Mark 5:34)

    Tried:
    Detrol:only took one pill and it made me sick
    Elmiron:caused horrible pain(took 1 week)
    CystaQ:caused alot of burning and pain(only took one pill)
    Wellbutrin:only on it for three days as it caused alot of bladder pain
    Elavil:Took one pill and it caused a flare that lasted almost two weeks. It was the longest flare I've ever had. Never again..ouch
    Prelief:made my bladder burn and feel tingly.

    Take:
    Uracyst:Started May 19 2011
    Enablex:take one pill daily with no issues
    Naproxen:for pain as needed
    Baking Soda with water:as needed and it's a God send. It brings down my pain within 20 mins.
    Venofer: Started April 2012 by IV for low Iron. I do not tolerate oral Iron so this is the route I had to take.Does not bother my bladder but did have other side effects. I take Benedryl with each treatment to avoid side effects.
    Supplements:Whey Protein powder daily
    Dessert Harvest Aloe It has been helping alot but I can only take it every two days as my "die off" reaction has been severe.
