Day After Obama Gets Elected

Cindy is doing great with the IC. All last and this week have been 0 pain days. She had a little, little pain when she was driving to the Poconos and she had some ketchup for her fries.

She also got over the rash caused by the Cortizone. Although, she seems to be in remission, I insist that she watches her diet to make sure the remission lasts longer. She has been out of antibiotics (because of the rash) for 2 weeks. She was on antibiotics for 1 month. Hopefully, this helped the IC.

We are definitely thinking that from now own our remedies will be as "natural" as possible.

Back Again with the Blog - Cindy is doing great

Update:

Cindy had a bladder distension August 28th. She had in general being feeling fine with many 0 pain days before the operation. The operation wasn't as horrible as described. The results were that she had moderate IC. Well...we are in October, and if she doesn't cheat horribly, she has no pain. She is definetely in a remission.

One day she had perogies, and she had pain. They are out of the diet.

She had a bite of chocolate poptart, hot chocolate, hazelnut crunch with chocolate in it. She has also tried BBQ sauce. She did fine in all cases.

She stopped taking Elmiron.

She takes singulair, 5 mg lexapro (reduce the stress).
