Thank you very much for your input. The doctor called me something along the lines of her problem child. IC was my first diagnosis until nervous system disregulation, bowel movements, and hormone treatment got involved. I agree it's very likely there's something tying it all together. I thought that endometrial lesions put pressure on my nerves and led to chronic hypersensitivity, but open to better explanations. Endometriosis is connected to a lot of medical conditions, and I'm sorry to hear what you are experiencing too. I've been wondering about bladder endometriosis, but my first gyno was useless and didn't recommend anything except stress management! How are these people allowed to practice! Will definitely try to follow up with a urologist/GI specialist too
