Hi everyone!

Just wanted to re-introduce myself. I was around the boards for a brief period when I was first diagnosed. I took a break to spend some time on myself and despite being diagnosed with additional diseases the time away was good for me. I have become very educated on my various illnesses, have gained a more positive outlook and have found an awesome doctor! Don't get me wrong, I still struggle and some days IC really kicks my butt BUT I am staying positive and keeping a good mental attitude. Anyway, I am glad to be back now! :)

Glad to see you back... sorry about the extra diagnoses; unfortunately that often comes with IC territory... I know it did for me (IC, IBS, severe allergies/asthma, and now maybe fibromyalgia too)

I hope you are feeling good... I know I admire your positive outlook and your efforts to educate yourself about all of your conditions! Knowledge is power. :)

Sorry about the other tag alongs like IC isn't enough. I wonder how many people with IC develope fibromyalgia, IBS, PFD, TMJ, and such? I can't stand nnot having answers!!! Why is it that some of us get fibro and endometriosis and others don't? I think that IC is a bunch of different things or that there is a big mysterious problem that is causing all of it? Some people think IC is an auto immune thing but other's say it's not? Oh well I do know that so many of us suffer with other related conditions and it sucks! Glad you came back to the boards! Take care - Chris :cat:
