    • Good Luck

      From Manders30328 February 20

      Hi! I have MTHFR disorder and I posted a reply to the question in the Pregnancy after loss forum. If you want to be tested for this, you should ask your RE or OB about running a "clotting panel" and it should give you an answer. Here is a website that might help also.... http://www.pregnancy-info.net/mthf... It doesn't have tons of information. I have a site that the University Hospital that I am seen at gave methat is realy helpful, but I"m traveling and will have to get back to you on that! I wish you the best of luck!!!

    • Close Interstitial Cystitis (IC)

      I was diagnosed with IC, in summer of 2002 due to frequent urination at night. Pain would come and go. Went on elmiron for 3 months, stopped for number of reasons. Pain has been pretty severe for last two years, occurring daily. I constantly feel like I have UTI! I have had two miscarriages and want to know if its related to IC. As soon as I think I'm pregnant pain shoots into my lower back. I think sperm irritate my bladder severely. Let me know your experiences, PLEASE!

      Treatments

      Bladder Distention Too Soon to Tell
      I tried a bladder distention about 4 weeks ago. Still not sure if worked, does not seem to have.
      Elmiron Not Working
      Went on elmiron for approx. 3 months, stopped due to cost (no insurance), dosage 3 times daily did not go along with lifestyle, and length of time needed to stay on.
      Heat Working / Worked
      Works great during winter months, can't stand to use it during summer No AC in house:(
      Physical Exercise Working / Worked
      Noticed that when I drink soda/alcohol my symptoms really flare up. I am miserable with extreme pain/arthritis-like pain in my legs. Also-wierd thing my bones crack often
    • Close Miscarriage

      I am 27, diagnosed with Interstitial Cystitis 5 years ago. I have a wonderful, supportive husband and we have had two miscarriages. I have no children as of yet, and am wondering if IC is the cause.

      D&C Working / Worked

    • Open Pregnancy After Loss/Infertility

      I have had two miscarriages and now just recently two ectopic pregnancies(within last year) and my heart is in pain. I have never had a successful pregnancy thus far. I am trying to keep hope alive, but it is difficult.Just wondering if we will ever be successful and what may help in a venture.
