I'm flaring excruciatingly badly every day at 4pm. I can't figure out what's causing this as none of my habits have changed. It's misery inducing. What the heck is going on?

Love, Hannah.

Is that the end of the work day? Are you eating anything suspicious for lunch? Long drive home?

Check your diet, make sure the water your drinking is ph ok, stress, hormones, it could be a number of things. Maybe do a journal of your days and it might help you figure it out. Hugs!

Under all kinds of circumstances, (home, not home, etc.) and I eat nothing suspicious ever, I'm IC diet all the way. Lol. I wish I could pinpoint it. I had to take meds and sleep it off today, lost the entire day. Slept for hours. I can't afford to lose days. :/

I keep a dedicated IC journal. In fact I filled up my 1st one and I'm working on my 2nd. Documentation of this stupid disease appears to be my only weapon sometimes. I'm on the IC diet for 6 months, drink tons of water, etc. I take elmiron and singular (tolerated well) and muscle relaxants and see a PT for hi tone PFD (hopefully she can help with this newest development.) This particular version of hell began 3 days ago. I'm losing days to it and I need it to stop. It could easily be stress but the stress in my life is primarily caused by this stupid disease. Lol. If it's hormones I'm clueless what to do about it. :/
