am i the only one who doesn't have a lot of pain with their ic? i have some urethral pain and occasional bladder burning, but for the most part my symptoms are just urgency and frequency (which is enough to drive me nuts, honestly). is anyone else like this?

I have about the same - some urethral pain and occasional burning but not really any pain in my actual bladder. There are plenty of others like us, not to worry.

I don't have to much pain from my IC. I had the potassium test last week when I was diagnosed and that was probably the most pain I have actually felt in my bladder... not the test itself, just the fluid they put it. The main symptom that I had that made my gynocologist want to check was painful intercourse & I pee a lot... I NEVER even thought the 2 would be related. :)

I am lucky that I had an educated doctor who put 2 and 2 together. But on normal days the worst thing is having to pee all the time. (especially with all this water they want me to drink now )
