Re: Endo - Endless PainFrom: Jennifer (anonymous@obgyn.net)Mon Dec 29 16:05:42 2003
Have you been tested for IC, intertistal cystistis? There is a site I believe it is http://www.ichelp.com -- failing that a search engine should pull it up. It will give you a sense of what IC is like and should be enough to whether you fall into that group. Symptoms vary, it has flares. IE sometimes everything is fine and other times, nothing is. Also consider getting tested just for a bladder infection via a culture -- beyond a urine sample. Urine samples will be clean with IC but it is like having a chronic constant infection. The pain can be excruciating. I find a TENS unit moderately helpful when I am having serious bladder/peeing issues -- though nothing really erases it completely. And water with baking soda will help alkanize your urine perhaps make it less painful. If you are having trouble peeing make sure you aren't retaining too much water and get yourself to a urologist or your gyn - just to isolate the issue. An ultrasound will also help determine if it the problem is the uterus or the bladder or both -- And yes, somehow with the endo getting bad in my body, it has started to affect every basic function -- not real pleased with that. I really emphasize with you, bladder pain is brutal and can be constant. At Mon, 29 Dec 2003, Adrienne wrote: > >Hello all - Does anyone here suffer from extreme bladder pain associated >with Endo?
