Waiting to Die

If you’ve been following this blog or my health journey in general, you know that I have been suffering and struggling with chronic pelvic pain for several years.  I’ve been seeing both a gynecologist and a urologist trying to get to the bottom of this extremely painful issue.  My urologist has done 5 bladder instillations, and is now planning a cystoscopy with hydrodistention.  My gynecologist…

Moving On: A Urology Update

I’ve had a hectic few weeks and have gone quiet on here.  I’d apologize for that, but sometimes we all need to take a break and that’s exactly what I’ve done.  During the last few weeks I completed a few of the bladder instillations that my urologist wanted to try on me.  I made it through instillation #5 before the doctor gave up on them.  They have not helped my pain in the least and caused an…

Well, my Interstitial Cystitis flare has gone on for over a month now.  It’s actually closer to 6 weeks, but who’s counting?

I’m working with an amazing…

Interstitial Cystitis

Interstitial cystitis… the phrase that has haunted me for years.  I have suffered with chronic bladder and pelvic pain for longer than I can remember, and as of now it is looking like this is the biggest culprit.  I am seeing several specialists for this condition and have many different procedures and treatments planned over the next couple of months, in the hopes of finally getting some relief…

So i was supposed to get a bladder instillation today and I didn't because they numbed me, which they could barely do because I was resisting so much, and then when they tried to put the catheter in I wouldn't let them I kept jolting back in my seat and didn't let them put it in and then when they finally got it in they got it in the vagina instead lmfao. So I didn't let them do it so they told me to do a cystoscopy instead under anisthesia so it will be better for me. I'm such a fucking baby omg.
