not that new

[hopeful]

Well ive had ic diag for over a year now but didnt know where else to post this. just wondering if anyone else has the hunner's ulcer? IF so what did your doc do for it? I was told last year i had one but no treatment was given until now i just found a new uro who im paying for but worth it he is putting me on weekly heprin installs for the next 6 weeks and then elmiron and atarax and said this will help with the ulcer too? thanks

I have hunners there is treatment for them diff doctor do try diff things however.
some peoples hunners will go away with heparin installment treatment others do dmso installments. I believe there is more. treatments beside having them surgerly removed.
I normally have my cut out since the burning didn't last long.
by having them cut out they stay gone longer. (for me)
but rest a sure there is treatments.
sending you hugs and prayers

I'm the same as Rhonda with this; having them taken out bring some relief until they start to come back but it's still worth it. I get it done about twice a year

I also have Hunner's ulcers. We don't do anything special to treat them. Just treating the IC seems to help.

thanks! Yeah my doc said that the treatment plan im on should help the heprin installs and the medication. They said i only had one so i guess thats good, and this is considered the last stage the severe stage if you have the ulcers right? thanks again
