I too was diagnosed with IC for 7 years with terrible pain until I read a blog of a girl with the same problems - actually sounded a lot like yours and mine. Her problem was GLUTEN! I went gluten free 4 years ago and feel better each day! NOT MORE IC for me! I want to shout it from the rooftops - I was so mad my uro dr never suggested it. It may not be the cure for all IC - but it 100% stopped mine. Please try it those of you hurting! I just started a blog myself at www.theglutenfreetexan.com where you can see my symptoms as well.

I was diagnosed with Crohn's colitis 15 years ago and don't take any meds on a regular basis, only when it flares every 3 - 4 years. In between, I eat whatever I want (very spicy too!). Unfortunately I was diagnosed with IC several weeks ago and was despairing that life is over until I read your blog. It appears that you can eat most foods again with your IC! Is this really the case? And now your pregnant! Wow! Fantastic!! You certainly are an inspiration!!!! Would love any pearls of wisdom from you on living life with IC/Crohns. I'm feeling a little beaten down by the whole thing at the moment :-(Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6139882958054288362.post-50083590594928770822011-04-18T19:11:01.178-04:002011-04-18T19:11:01.178-04:00Hi Anonymous!
My IC came on before Crohn's. ...Hi Anonymous!<br /><br />My IC came on before Crohn's. I had an intense bout with IC from 2003-2005 and then was diagnosed with Crohn's late in 2005. I did some research and some doctors/scientists believe IC is an autoimmune response, much as IBD. I truly think they're all related. Just as the symptoms of my IC were abating, Crohn's-related symptoms became quite intense. I think there is a link, and perhaps a hereditary component as well (my mother has an autoimmune disorder, too). <br /><br />I'm also suspicious regarding the amount of antibiotics I took while urologists were trying to diagnose my IC (since I had symptoms of an infection, yet no presence of one, they often diagnosed antibiotics). I had many, many rounds and am curious if that affected the "flora" in my bowel. Who knows, but I think it may of had a hand in everything.<br /><br />I've had subsequent short-term IC flares, and of course Crohn's flares. Often not in tandem; they seem to tag team. <br /><br />I'm sorry to hear you're afflicted with IC/Crohn's/IBS/Endo and Diverticulitis. It would be wonderful if there was a magic pill to combat them all!Kathrynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10746789901825076957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6139882958054288362.post-30187818635782042622011-04-17T14:24:06.630-04:002011-04-17T14:24:06.630-04:00I was telling my sister how rare the combination o...I was telling my sister how rare the combination of things the doctors have diagnosed me is and she told me to search the web there are bound to be others and surpise suprise there you are...do you ever think the Crohns meds caused the IC? I have IC, Crohns, IBS,Endo and Diverticulitis and they are all in some state of flare up all the time...the ICs is the most recent I've had that about 3 years which coincidences with an increase in my Crohns meds so thought perhaps they were a related side effect?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6139882958054288362.post-77614516534824285502010-01-20T11:43:36.934-05:002010-01-20T11:43:36.934-05:00Alisa,

I have an intense round of them the summer I was diagnosed, and then had them "ad hoc" when necessary. That, with diet (for example, you'll never, ever catch me enjoying a glass of OJ), has gotten my symptoms under control with smaller flare-ups here and there that I chooose to just live though. Best of luck...this is awful and I'm crossing my fingers mine doesn't come back with a vengence!!Kathrynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10746789901825076957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6139882958054288362.post-24828359965838611602010-01-19T21:26:44.799-05:002010-01-19T21:26:44.799-05:00I was wondering how you got to the point where you...I was wondering how you got to the point where you don't even think about your IC.

Thank you so much for posting about your IC as well!<br /><br />I'm really sorry that you ever have to go through Crohn's and IC, but it sounds like you've come out on top, and I admire you very much for it. <br /><br />My IC is still flaring pretty badly, but when I see that others have been able to manage their symptoms it gives me more motivation not to give up. <br /><br />I've spent many a night in the ER because of Crohn's and IC--I went in early Christmas morning because my IC medicine was causing some rather nasty problems. These things certainly have no mercy or planning around our lives, but it's good to know we're still able to live happily.<br /><br />I will definitely be reading your blog, and I wish you the best.<br /><br />Stay well!!Bonnie Griffithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03103836851434830779noreply@blogger.com
