I to have been diagnosed with Interstitial Cystitis. You are right
about getting help. I am lucky enough to have a great urologist. It
seems that my symptoms for it actually bother me a lot less than the
adhesions.
I know what you mean about the doctor saying he doesnt deal but with one
area. When I had my last child I was admitted a week later with
congestive heart failure and an upset stomach and cramping from
delivery. The only doctor that was helping me was the cardiologist and
when I told him my other concerns he said he just dealt with the heart.
I ended up going home with a uterine infection and an infected
gallbladder. The emergency gallbladder surgery 3 weeks later (that
should have been caught at the hospital) is what gave me these dumb
adhesions.
I have learned through all of this that you have to stand up for
yourself. I wonder what would happen to doctors if we had the ability
to fire them. They work for us but they act like they are doing us a
favor.
I hope things get better for you real soon!
