Interstitial Cystitis is a very hard and painful medical issue to deal with. It take alot of strength to make it though each and every day.
Some days are worse than others. Some days I feel like I am on top of the world. Then others I just want to curl up in a ball and cry.
For those of us that know that dealing with this issue emotions play a very large role in the fight with IC. I personally know that when you have outside pain due to either someone hurting you both emotionally and physically or if you have a large amount of stress that makes things seem so much worse. There is at this time NO known cure for IC. And there is only one FDA approved medicine to even try to treat it. IC tends to affect more women than men. I am not sure if that is because men do not get to a doctor as much as women to find out what is wrong with them. Or if it is really something that mainly only affects women. But you know what I would not wish this on my worst enemy. I wish I did not have it. But I guess GOD only deals us what he thinks we can handle and for some reason GOD thinks I can handle a WHOLE LOT OF CRAP!!
Because besides the IC.. I have multipule other health issues that follow me day by day. Everyday I pray to GOD to just let me make it through another day ALIVE!!
But you know what.. Without the support of my family.. kids and loved ones and GOD... I would not be able to make it through that next day!!
Thank you to everyone that is there for me and loves me..
I LOVE YOU TOO!!!
