I feel oh so good!

[Cali girl]

I think I can finally say that I am in remission. Last night I had a glass of wine with dinner. And zero problems. I had forgotten just how good that was. I have had bananas, onions, tomatoes, caffeine, chocolate, peppercinis and pickles all with no problems. Of course I didn't eat all of that in one sitting but over the course of the last two months. I do limit how much of that I eat. I don't want to irritate my bladder again. Every once in a while I will partake in a uh oh eek food. Life is good again! I feel so much better. I feel sexy again. I can honestly say I am enjoying my life again. I had to stop my classes. I was working towards a degree. Now I will start them again. YAY!!! Of course I still take my meds every day. I don't miss a dose. And I know that my remission may not last that long so I am savoring every minute of it. I do hope this lasts.

Thank you so much everyone. I have also posted under the I'm in Remission board the meds I am on (Meds and Remission). Some of you had wanted to know. I promise that I will still post on these boards. I know how important that is. After all, it was everyone on these boards that helped lift me up when I couldn't stand on my own because I was heart broken and scared of having IC. Thank you!! grouphug kissing

Cali,
It's so good for people to hear about someone's great days! It helps to hear the good more than the bad. (Just the territory w/this disease.) I hope it stays that way for you for a long, long time!
Hugs! grouphug
