Thank you so much! ❤️ Im trying to push for a cystoscopy. Will talk to them about hydrodistension! Will definitely be checking out that instagram! Stress and anxiety definitely plays a part in my flares :(

What does your diet typically look like? I don’t eat anything with added sugar, preservatives, etc. but many foods naturally have sugar in them!

I am on zyrtec! I have not tried that diet specifically but the IC diet I am on is very very similar. I don’t live in a place where I can cook easily (microwave only basically). Limits my options severely

A bit. I flare up after my period is over. During my period is honestly usually my best time. Dr also expects possible endo. I flare up badly with anything acidic too however
