8 times a day? Well then I'm definatly abnormal! It's just weird, I had
a lot of pain and spasming after my lap, which ok is normal, but after I
healed, nothing. Yeah, I think I am going to make an appt.-can't hurt
right? At least that way I would know, and so many ppl have said that
lots of women with endo also have IC. Thanks for the info-and I'm going
to take your advice and make an appt. Take care and I hope you find
something that works for you all of the time!
