I am extremely itchy every inch of my body from head to toe including my eyes, nose and ears. There is no rash, to look at, it is normal. It's driving me insane! My hands are tired from scratching all day. I can't sleep very well because I'm constantly having to scratch. Any suggestions on how to relieve this? I don't know what's happening to me, feeling quite scared :(

I have written about this a couple of times, but I've now been in a flare for 4 weeks. I've been in treatment for one year. And I was doing so well. But then I had a TERRIBLE, heavy 21-day period in late October. Still, my bladder held up really well as I battled severe anemia. My anemia is now under control and I'm having such a bad flare. It's been a little better the last four or five days. Boaz said it could be because my body was so weakened because of the anemia. I'm just so frustrated. I don't know.

Womdering how many of you who suffer from migraines have auras associated with them? I was doing ok with my migraines for a while, but they are becoming really severe again and auras are lasting for 30 min or more with nausea, and followed by extreme fatigue and sharp throbbing head. How do others deal with the auras, pain and fatigue. I slept over 11 hours last night and hurt to open my eyes and still feel like I could sleep more. It hurts to move my eyes and head.

Hello ALL,

Where do I go on here to send in my symptoms and information so they can acess it and see if I would qualify as a new patient? Thats what their secretary said for me to do a few days ago but I didn't have my computer with me at the time. Now that I have it I can't find where to send my info?

Hello all!

Taking a total shot in the dark, because I know some patients read and not post, but I am wondering if by chance anyone who has an appointment with Dr. Matia on March 11th at 12:30 is able to switch me times? I am having surgery in the morning and yes the only day I can have surgery is Wednesday. I'm nervous how I'm going to tolerate the surgery and wanting to try to have my appointment in the afternoon after I discharge from the hospital. Currently I'm scheduled to see Dr. M at 9:30 the same day. Thanks, scared to death regarding the whole situation!!!

Does anyone know the difference between the branded GML and Bomamed GML? I have been taking Bomamed's own and was about order some more before I realised there is a branded GML that is half the price. I'm not sure if I have been taking the correct one

Hi,I am new here. I started IC symptoms last summer with a positive UTI. bladder symptoms continues.... 1 Month later labia tingling started to the left. Later symptims progressed to butt,hip,leg,thigh,ankle, and sacrum pain. Most recently pgad and the feeling of an object in my V*****, and lots of body muscle twitching. Ive had cystoscopy,ct scan,x ray, lumbar mri,pelvic mri. Tried OAB meds, treatments from a naturopathix dr,physio therapy,one bladder instillation,did a stool kit,adrenal check,etc... No yeast or bacteria seen in stool from Parasite X3 test from upper intestine.

I am in the worst flare EVER for my IC. Two weeks long and pain level at an 8. I am going to take Hydrocodone tonight. I can't take it. Is that the worst decision ever? At this point, I really don't care. I need relief. But I wondered if anyone had an insight??

Okay ladies I feel things have taken a turn for the worst. I am not doing well at all. First off Boaz has me on 3 drops sf, 2 gan moa ling, 3 rp, 1/2 siberian, and 1/2 super. For the past week I have literally been going to the bathroom at least every 15 min. My urgency is just as bad if not worse than when I was pregnant. My period has not come this month. It came the last 2 months.
