When you suspected you had IC, what was the clue? I have had frequent UTIs since my lap in June 2003 which diagnosed me with both endo and IBS. How severe was the pain? I have been practically unable to function for the past four days because of serious pelvic pain and I went to university health services today and they found a UTI but I don't know if that's enough to cause the amount of pain I'm in. My Ob-Gyn says maybe. Having endo on virtually every reproductive and digestive organ in my body, I have a high tolerance for pain but it was so bad today they had to give me a shot of pain killers in the butt. Please let me know I'm getting anxious.
