Hi all,

i haven't been on in a while, just had to stop myself reading about ic every single day, just to help me refocus on other things as I make progress. So I've been doing pretty good, ups and downs, but mostly my bladder feels calm. I still get vaginal / perineal irritation, still bad athletes foot and at times after voiding or BM urethra irritation / bladder pressure. But background urgency mostly gone :-) often I feel moments of intense happiness, that the worst is over. I hope you will all get there. I am working on healing (through sugar free diet, probiotics) for 2.5 years now, since last oct with the help of dr. B. so yes it is a slow process...stick with it!

Now as I'm doing well and since 2 years have a very regular 28 day cycle, why am I on day 37 and nothing?? Has any of you had this when things were going well? Yes previously I was told I have pcos, and since I've put on bit of weight (normal bmi) in last 6 months, would that influence my hormones to this degree? I had a severe flu about a month ago, took about 2 weeks to get over, still extremely tired from it. Anyone ever missed period due to flu? Any thoughts appreciated :-) xx C oh and def not preg, unfortunately!
