    Gatorade

    I was wondering if Gatorade is something anyone can drink? I am so sick of water and have been super nauseas with morning sickness.... I have tried sipping Gatorade before I found out I had IC and it seemed to help.

    Thanks!

    Some ICers can have some Gatorade flavors. I can tolerate the blue ones. Most find the pink/red ones to be a problem. If you try it, I suggest you take a very small drink of it --- then wait a day before trying more.

    Good luck!

    The rain/green kind is good for me too as is the blue kind (small amounts). Anything with red, orange or yellow food dye does me in though.
    Symptoms: Increased pain with activity (especially lower leg work and bending over); stabbing urethral pain, menstrual cramp pain, cannot wear tight pants, feel worse during spring/summer allergy season. The combo of things that brought me out of remission were artificial sweetners, liquid vitamins with citric acid, tight pants, lower body workouts and stopping all my allergy meds cold turkey during height of allergy season. I wish I knew back then what I know now about IC

    First IC symptoms Spring of 2000; In-office cystoscopy 2002 -negative; Remission until 2007 (yeah!!); Negative PST spring of 2007
    IC diagnosed via Cystoscopy and Hydrodistention 7/24/07; Another In-office cystoscopy 4/9/10 with biopsy showed inflammation

    Treatments for my IC/PFD:
    Elmiron 400 mg per day; Physical Therapy for PFD; Zyrtec; Singulair
    Ice packs and laying down

    Tried and Failed: Heparin instills -too painful for my urethra; Atarax (interfered with my quality of sleep first time, second time dried my bladder out; Elavil makes me sick, lidocaine patches, Cystoprotek (only tried a couple months but didn't seem to do much)

    Other Diagnoses: PFD diagnosed 9/09; Fibromyalgia
    Gastroparesis (delayed gastric emptying) Anxiety

    Other medications: Ambien, Zegerid, Ativan, Zyrtec
