I have IC-diagnosed in 2004. Numerous outpatient procedures done. Surgery. Weekly bladder treatments for a year. Not my major issue now. Thank goodness!

I was diagnosed with IC.
I kept thinking I had a bladder infection because of pain and frequent urination issues.
I was told it is an inflammatory condition of the lining of the bladder.
It is more common in people with Fibromyalgia. If I don’t drink coffee, carbonated drinks, alcohol, citrus drinks, spicy things it does help. There are also sulfuric vegetables that can irritate it.
It is really a diagnosis of symptoms because they rule out other possible causes first.
I hope this helps.

I was diagnosed with IC years before Fibro. I couldn't take it so I did some research and saw a specialist. For months, I was getting diagnosed with a UTI and wasn't getting better. I recommend seeing Urogynecologist. The doctor did a series of tests. Lifesaver. I do have flares but it nothing like when you are undiagnosed.

@A MyFibroTeam Member I have a couple questions ... or may I share my story and you can let me know if it sounds similar? I was out of commission 4 days in bed or the bath misses work and thank God I had my husband to care for the house and kids... it came out of no where the pain in one side of my lower back, they figured kidney stones , muscle damage, UTI, many trips and appts. Nothing found. Almost better and went for a ultrasound and holding my urine brought back the pain... I'm waiting on the urologist appt. And my inside have never been the same since pain in the lower back, sides, lower and upper abdomen... any of that sound familiar?
