Another round of supplements

So, I decided to give taking supplements yet another try. A chiropractor that I am seeing thinks he may have the answer to overcoming IC (him and everyone else I've seen). You think I would have learned my lesson by now, but there's something in me that always thinks, "Maybe this time will be different." After spending a nice sum of money on them, I took one dosage on wed. evening. It created such pain in my bladder I couldn't sleep at all. My bladder was spasming constantly and I made at least 10 trips to the bathroom. 2 days later I am still working on reducing the inflammation from this little trial. It will take me probably another 3 or 4 days to recover from the irritation they caused. The next time someone says (no matter WHO it is) they have some supplements that may help I am going to run out of the room! I recently discovered the name of another doctor that believes in a connection between yeast and IC. This is something I know has an affect on my bladder and I have had trouble finding someone in Chicago that believes in that also. I may give this doctor a call...I don't know. It's all a shot in the dark.

Still Struggling along...

It's been a while since I have posted because I have been working on a special project. I will update my blog with the details when the project is finished. Otherwise I am still battling the urinary tract infection/yeast infection issue from 3 weeks ago and have been unable to get much sleep during the night at all. It's quite frustrating and today I am pooped out. That's the never-ending cycle of my life right now. Anyway, just wanted to let anyone who looks at this blog to know I am alive. Off to work...
