Interstitial Cystitis

Just curious If there are any one on here that suffers from IC (Interstitial Cystitis).


I found in 2005 after I had my right kidney removed in Nov. 2004. Currently going though a flare up and it stinks. We moved over a year and a half ago and because of no insurance I have yet to look for a urologist. :ohwell:

Hi, this is coming from someone with i.c. for 25 years and so much pain, the one and only thing and I mean the only thing that helps is Klonopin, they gave it to me for Anxiety and It made me so much better, so I asked the Nurse why and she said it is a benzodiazapine like valium or diazepam (but) Klonopin also contains a smooth muscle relaxer which works on the bladder, hope that will help you, I have been throught every procedure out their, when I had insururance and this was the only thing that helped.
