HELP! have been experiencing pelvis pain on and off for about 3 months now. initially they told me i had a UTi and I took an AXB (bactrim) for 10 days. Once the 10 days were completed i still was having the discomfort. My ObGyN OFFICE did a transvag Ultrasound that was normal- ruled out pelvic infections- so my GyN told me to see a GASTROINTESTINAL doctor- so i did. and he doesnt seem concerned as i told him about 7 months ago i actually did have a Ct scan that was normal, that was due to a Er visit after i ate something bad i believe. what to do???? this back pain and pelvic pain are kiling me! could it be muscular? pinched nerve, herniated disc?

    Have you googled interstitial cystitis?

    Check out the Interstitial Cystitis Network - on the front page the forums are listed. Check out the one about not yet diagnosed and see if that looks familiar. Very easy to register and ask questions. They are wonderful there - very kind and compassionate.

    So much confusion on this subject.

    The pelvic pain (to me it was like menstrual cramps) is a real indicator. The back pain I don't know - maybe. Check it out with them.

    Many IC people also have irritable bowel syndrome. I have inflammatory bowel disease.

    IC is yet another immune system disease. You have to follow a strict diet in terms of food, liquids, etc.

    Good luck.
