I've had a hydro before, in April of 2003 when I was dianosed with IC I had a hydro/cysto. I've been reading some of the postings because I couldn't really remember what it was like. I don't remember having the amount of pain some of you are had though. Truth be told, I had my hydro on a Friday I was at work the following Sunday, I mean it was just running a cash register and I didn't feel super about being there, but I wasn't in so much pain that I couldn't work. My case of IC isn't very severe and I don't know if that has anything to do with it, just urgency, no pain. Anyway, I hope that this it isn't too bad, I don't remember it being bad but everytime I get a new tattoo I don't remember the last being so bad either! If anyone else has been feeling alright after a hydro I'd appreciate a little note, just so I'm not so nervous!

I was actually ok after 3 out of the 4 hydros. The first few days were rough but pretty decent after that. I had major symptom resolution for 3 months-year.

After a hydro, I always feel better than before the procedure, but it does take me a few days to really feel good --- and I take it a little easy for a week or so.
