Hi Ladies,

So I was on my Instragram and I searched for #interstitialcystisis and I found quite a few ladies who are going through so much pain due to IC and other illnesses associated with .Many our stuggling since they feel there is no hope of healing. 

I just wanted to give you all a heads up as I reached out to them and sent them this way. I mentioned how wonderful and supportive you all are. I did not try to adverstide for Matia in anyway, lol, I'm just letting them know that they are not alone and they should not give up, as we know Matia's treatment is working. 

Please feel free to head on over to Instagram and reach out to them as well. I know they may feel a bit skeptical at first, since it sounds too good to be true. I admit, I sure thought this when I first came across Icama. =P

Thanks for the heads up.
 
This is a really interesting issue. When I was doing my initital research I came across a few facebook groups for people that were self-treating. I personally found it very frustrating to read their posts and tried to reach out to some. Many were staunch vegans, or ate only raw-food  and were offended when I suggested that the TCM approach would need to include some red meat. I found it very exhausting and time consuming to engage with these women as much as I wanted to help them. I fear I would get too caught up in it again. Of course if people post here I am very happy to be supportive. I think many people do come across this website when looking for holistic treatment for IC but choose not to explore it further.  It is overwhelming to think of giving up the Standard American Diet including sugar and alchohol and I think many shy away for that reason, and also because Chinese Medicine and this treatment is hard to understand initially.

If we don't excel at health, the only other option is disease.

I did some Instagram searching myself a whole ago and had to cut it out. It's pretty upsetting. I reached out to several women through tumblr and actually stay in touch with one of them who is self-treating with really great success. Unfortunately many people I spoke with refused to acknowledge an alternative treatment to the drugs and hospital stays they are currently dealing with.  It is hard to want to help people who have their own very strong views but it's always worth reaching out!

Hi Ladies,
Sorry for the late reply. Thanks for sharing that info. I can totally understand how that can be frustrating. I reached out to quite a few girls and no response. I had to try. I felt some what of a responsibility to inform them, just incase they haven't come across this site or bomamed, because yes; it it very depressing to see them go through pain, depresison, surgeries, bladder instills etc. Which is just a reminder of how grateful I am to have found Dr. Brizman.
All I can do is pray for them.
