where is the pain

[Bianchi]

I am having pain all over the lower stomach. Sometimes I dont know is it the bladder or a stomach problem. It goes all the way to the groin area. Does anyone else have this. It even hurts to walk sometimes, because the left groin hurts so much.
I know I am under stress right now, company coming, and I have a lot to do before Christmas. I am one of those perfectionist people. I have cut down a lot already, baking less, decorating less and going shopping less.
Although I do get this pain a lot. I just dont want to take the time out to go to the Dr., so I guess I will try pyridium and maybe tramadol.
With IC, I guess everyone's pain is different.

My lower stomach hurts when I am in a flare also. I hope you feel better soon.

If this is a new symptom bring it to the attention of your doctor!!
I think a lot of patients have pain in their lower abdomen...it can be as low as their groin and can be bad enough for the back to hurt and other surrounding areas too. If one side is worse you should talk to your doctor about it. You may have a hunners ulcer in that area or it may just be pressure from other things pushing on your bladder in that area but in case it isn't you should tell your doctor. At least call your doctor. One thing you don't to happen is to allow something that could be prevented get worse because you ignored it or treated it believing it was from your IC.

I hope you feel better soon. :grouphug:
