Hello @suzettemh,

Welcome to Connect; we're glad you joined us in this discussion. @susierq111 @tbeckys @cbs61752 @kas1792 @operationqueen @rdrdhap @suzette @barb54 @8dzaweek @lexi @jeananderson2014 @mgnunez75 @Weedy @praymond234 @mogulers @kerrilynn1 @jmgm @charlenem, have posted about interstitial cystitis (IC) in previous discussions, and I hope that they will return to share their experiences.

I'd also encourage you to read this information on interstitial cystitis from Mayo Clinic: http://mayocl.in/1v8Vak4.

@suzettemh, have you altered your diet or thought about ways you could change it? Do you have any specific questions about IC, or maybe insights to share with Connect members?

I limit my beverage of choice to water. No carbonization, no alcohol, no artifical sweetners. I suffer with a burning bladder and eat mildly with lots of water when in a flare.

I drink milk, water and a very occasional diet root beer with my IC. Did your dr. Tell you about the pill Prelief. Which can be purchased at Walmart and occasionally I take them so I can eat something not on the IC diet, but that is rare I do that. I do best following the IC diet.

My IC is severe, tried everything only Oxycodone helps. Just found out my pain Dr of 7yrs is retiring and need recommendations in New Jersey thanks!
