I am so miserable!!! I feel like I have hives yet there are no hives. I'm sensitive to heat, cold and clothing touching my skin. I can't stand to be hot but can't stand the airconditioning either. Also have a mild headache with it. I feel edgy and irritable. Keeps waking me up too. I want the die-off for sure but hope it doesn't stick around too awfully long or get worse :( prayers please.
I am so sorry Patti. I will
I am so sorry Patti. I will be praying for you. Keep in close contact with the doctor on your symptoms so they can guide you through this. You will get better! My daughter, who also has IC, had rashes coming and going from using hair spray at a wedding. Dr. B got her through that difficult time.

So sorry Pattie. There are SO MANY weird things with this condition and the body works things out in layers. It is very up and down and sometime severely so, other times, a more gentle up and down. You will get through this!!!
If we don't excel at health, the only other option is disease.

Thank you Mimi. It intensifies after I eat so I feel there is something there. It feels like I am having an allergic reaction but nothing shows outwardly. Feels like my eyes and mouth area are swollenbut its all internal. Its very uncomfortable. These weird symptoms are so frightening and difficult to deal with.

Following back up: Had an appt with Boaz today. Trying some changes to see if they help. If I can please put things in the proper perspective. I have improved so much in the past 6 months of treatment. My pain went from a 10 to almost non-existent even in the middle of this. My energy level has improved. Bowel movements have improved. Vaginal and rectal discomfort almost non-existent. I just wanted to share this so if anyone reads this thread and they are new it doesn't scare them. I know how I feel sometimes reading the worst case scenario and I have seen so much improvement in such a small amount of time. And sometimes in the midst of a rough patch we tend to forget the good things that have transpired...kind of wanted to remind myself of all this as well. I know Boaz has great insight on these new symptoms and do not doubt that will improve as well. So thankful for him and thanks to all of you for listening. I appreciate you all as well.
