I am 21, I have severe severe pain as my main symptom of IC. I am having an awful time working, I am in excuiciating pain and I am finding it hard to hold down a job, I find my work only worsens the muscle and bladder spasms,frequency and pain. I have never been able to keep a job longer than a year, I always get fired or quit because they complain about me calling out sick or needing time off for appointments. I truly feel in my heart i could never work full time. I am panicking because I am a single mom, I have no money and I truly cannot work any more or harder than I am, My pain is so bad I feel truly handicapped and no one believes me . I look healthy. I am not. I will never be able to work enough hours to have my own home for my daughter, I have tried ignoring the pain and working through it but I end up crying on the way home wishing for death the pain is so bad.
