going from bad to.....

[waterflow]

Talked with doc about that cytotec and told the problem and I basically got the brush off and told to go to another doctor for it. I thought "Excuse me, but you gave me this pill (and did so before but didn't remember) and told me no side effects and now I'm told to go to another doctor?" If you can't think of someting to help with the side effect then you shouldn't be giving me the pill to begin with. Or am I wrong on that? Also wanted the instill done differetly which went over like a lead balloon. Sooooooooooo, I will take the cytotec and if I have my period from now until menopause kicks in then that is how it will be. Tried upping the vicoden. Didn't help with pain and drugged me out. Tried stronger pain meds. Didn't help the pain and only drugged me out. Seems like I have to be my doctor now and the cats doctor and someone else's doctor. I can't really handle all of this. I am really starting to think about dropping the instill. Getting very hard getting up early every week (once a day...I know only one day) feed the cats, take a bath, wash hair ect. ect. Just doesn't seem worth it anymore. Got to thinkng on my way home how I stll haven't learned to shut my mouth and not trust people anymore. No one cares how I feel. NO ONE! I'm on my own with it all. Guess I didn't expect the brush off and I'm still ticked off about it. :rant:

Hey, I know this post is older but I came across it and saw you had no responses. I hate it when that happens to one of my post because usually I am looking for an answer to a question ect. It has been a while since I have bee on the site. I know a bot of your history from before but nothing about the last 6 months or so. So forgive me if i am way off here. Have you thought about going to a gyn? I know you do not like the "yearly work up" all of us women get to "enjoy", but maybe you can make an appointment to talk to one. At that appointment explain to them how you feel and ask them to treat you for IC. I know you have an IC doc but maybe a GYN would be able to give you a fresh perspective on IC and your meds. If you think you might want to go see one look on the site for an IC expert GYN. I just think a GYN would be more use to handeling female issues.

I am not a doctor but I am pretty sure having your period all the time would not be good and might lead to other problems like anemia. Good luck and please hang in there. Honey, you have to fight for yourself and your quality of life!!!! Mary, you can do this, I know you can!!!
