I think Im slowly getting better

[daisi24]

I really think the instillations are beginning to help me even though they are so painful. For the first time in my life I have low amount of pain and I was even able to learn how to drive and even exercise now. I am afraid to get to excited about this but I cant help it because I feel like I am becoming a new person :woohoo: . My frequency and urgency has dramatically decreased and like I said the pain is alot better and for the first time in years I dont have my usual lower right side pain! I just wanted to share this and say that this website has helped me alot and I know I could not have gotten this far without all of your guys support :grouphug: ! Thanks for helping me :)

Tara, :woohoo:
That is wonderful news!!!! I remember the instills being really painful at first. It wasn't until after quite a few of them did it become a bit more comfortable, and now they don't even bother me (unless I'm in a flare), but even then they aren't as bad as the first few.
Hang in there...sounds like you are on your way!!! :) :)
So good to read this kind of post!!!! :grouphug:

Portia, I have had 5 instills and the only thing in mine is the DSMO. Hope you feel better soon I have heard it takes about 5 or 6 to help some people.

take care,
