I wanted to share how this past week has went for me because it left me very confused.....

Hi everyone- I started with Dr. B in Nov. and Ive had IC for

Following Dr. B's protocoal, slowly adding new foods, makes you think of food in a very appreciative way. Often, I find myself researching about the health benefits of new foods I am ok'd to try, and it gives me such pleasure and appreciation that my body will benefit from it. Recently I've been researching about extra virgin olive oil, and wanted to share some links with you. Seems to me now that EVOO can turn into a passion just like wine is for most. Since i can't have wine for a while, I thought this can well  be my passion for a while.

Hey Girls,

Just needing some love and care from you all.  I was doing so well and then a flare hit that has not let up for almost a week.  The pain is way up there.  Dr. B is doing everything she can to be slow and careful with changes in doses for me because my body is super sensitive to EVERYTHING.  It is just so discouraging when you think you might be getting out of the woods and then you end up so deep in them that it's hard to imagine getting out.  I know I will, but I'm just bummed that I'm here in the middle of them right now.

Hi everyone, i am in the process of booking accomodation for my trip to LA ( in may) and need the address of Dr B's office, can someone please help? thanks! 

Hi All

Having a bad day already. I had a slightly better couple of weeks after my period started (I am 3 months into treatment). Now since ovulation and after, my background urge and frequency are up, up, up. This really sucks. I am supposed to start adding in Siberian for my mood and anxiety, but now my symptoms are worse and I am afraid to start anything new!

Hey there :) So I'm only a few months into treatment and I seem to have come across some weird muscle symptoms. My most recent one is crazy muscle fatigue. My muscles get tired super fast, I have to take a break and catch my breath after walking up my stairs and my arms get tired just from putting my hair up in a ponytail. It's been going on for about two days. Can anyone relate to this??? Geez I'm only 26 and I feel 90 :(. On a good note, my bladder has been doing pretty well. 

Hi all

I am almost 3 months in and feeling grateful that I am sleeping through the night! I was just starting to notice an increase in my void volume and a slight reduction in the number of times I was peeing per day. Frequency is my worst symptom, and this weird ache in my bottom!!

Of course, as soon as I had my phone consult with Dr. B where I was reporting progress, my frequency went up again for the past two days. Ugh. I am in the ovulation window and seem to recall my symptoms were worse last month around ovulation.

Has anyone else noticed this??

How do we believe that we can get well? That is my question for today as I comtinue to be pretty laid up with these creaky, sore knees that swell at the slightest use.  I did not believe that I could get better from IC even though others told me I could not. But I hunkered down and did the protocol because I felt that I had tried everything else.

I found this and it is super!
