    • Close Interstitial Cystitis (IC)

      I began being diagnosed with UTIs when I was about 15. I was diagnosed at 17 with IC and began on Elmiron. When I turned 18 I ran out of insurance and had to discontinue the use. About this same time I made a decision to refrain from any further sexual activity. I was doing great for two years and then this past May I felt it come back. It has never been so bad or lasted this long. I haven't had a break since it started...and the worst part: I'm beginning to think it's all due to sex for me

      Treatments

      Elmiron Working / Worked
      Worked wonderful while I could afford it.
      Pyridium Working / Worked
      worked for awhile, but I think I've become immune to it. It doesn't do anything but change the color of my urine now.
      Aqua Therapy Somewhat Helpful
      Used to be my magic trick, now it either helps a little or not at all, but I still find myself in the bath 1-4 times daily for hours at a time hoping it will help again
      Heat Working / Worked
      Doesn't fix it completely but it helps most of the time a little bit at least. Usually take it to bed with me to help me fall asleep.
    • Close Painful Intercourse

      I began being diagnosed with UTI's when I was 15 which made things difficult. Then I was correctly diagnosed with IC at 17. I quit having sex for 2 years and was taking Elmiron for the IC. Now I am in a relationship again and it is nothing but pain when it comes to making love. I feel sorry for my man.

      Treatments

      Oxycodone Somewhat Helpful
      I only had one before we got involved and it helped me during but the next day I was miserable again
    • Open Pregnancy

      My son was born May 2, 2008 at 6:50am. He was 9lb 5oz and 21 inches long. Labor was a total of 17 hours and I did get an epidural after 9hours but will do natural next time. I love labor and delivery...best thing in the world :-) I am currently in training to become a birth doula.

    • Open Sexual Abuse

      At 12 my uncle molested me during an overnight stay with my cousins. I found out two weeks later that he had been abusing his oldest (10 at the time) for the past 5 years and tried once with my sister. He went to jail for 2 weeks before being bailed out. There was a plee bargain and he only did probation. If you want to know more I am happy to talk, but they don't give you much room on these things.

      Treatments

      Talking Working / Worked
      talking to friends, others that have been through similar situations, counselors, etc.
    • Open Financial Challenges

      I am 21. My boyfriend is 27 and we are expecting our first child together in April. He was laid off and our bills are behind...we may be facing eviction and have no place to go. I start work tomorrow and he is actively looking but not sure how to survive until then. Also working to get our debt paid.

    • Open Breastfeeding

      I am due in late April or early May. Doc a little concerned about preterm labor as I've gone to er once already, but hopefullly the little one will stay in. Figured it's a good time to join now though. I plan to breastfeed exclusively if at all possible.

    • Open Parenting Newborns & Infants (0-1)

      My son was born May 2, 2008 at 6:50am. He is my first. He was 9lb 5oz and 21inches long. He is a healthy little man.

      Treatments

      Breast Feeding Working / Worked
      Extreamly difficult in the beginning and now I love it. So easy and available.
      Patience Working / Worked
      Take a deep breath and look at it from his side.
      Research Working / Worked
      If only their were more hours in the day to do it and more time to spend with Jaxon.
    • Open Parenting 'Tweens (9-12)
