Update
I went to the doctor (specialist) Wednesday for tests, answers, and treatment starting.The tests were torture, one of them they inserted a cathetar and put fluids in my bladder, one was salt water, total agony. I ended up sobbing. I found out I have severe IC, and my bladder is full of the sores, also I have pelvic floor muscle dysfunction, on top of endo. I was given like 8 new pills I have to begin taking and he took me off the estrodial and I am now on birthcontrol, he flipped out when he saw I was on the estrodial said he could not believe my gyno had put me on it said all he was doing was feeding the endo.I have to go once a week for bladder injections, take all this new medication, and go to a form of physical therapy.....I am to the point now it is like ok what else?!?I am very depressed right now, but I am also glad at least for answers and now a treatment plan. Will try to keep everyone updated onall of it. Also if any of you have a lot of UTI's or anything may want to get checked for IC it can be caused by endo.

I was recently diagnosedd with IC. I have been following the diet and my bladder has been feeling better. I had a total hysterectomy on 11-11 and he did cycstocopy and a hydrodistention on my bladder. It streches your bladder out. I can tell a HUGE difference with this treatment. I hope it stays this way!! Good luck with your treatments. Doesn\'t it feel wonderful to find someone to actually listen to you and try to help. Kaci :)
