Interstitial Cystitis

I have spent 8 years going to every type of doctor imagineable with burning and inflammation in the entire vulval area.  I looked like a Rhesus monkey at times!  Gynaccologists, skine specialists, etc. etc. did all the tests, tissue culture etc.  All that came back was major inflammation.  I nearly went mad-er with it!  I was over 60 so it was all blamed on menopause.  A very aware bladder specialist diagnosed IC emmediately and I got my life back.  Food etc. sets it off and I still make mistakes and get flare ups.  But at least I had a diagnosis.  I wonder if anyone out there has the same problem and can suggest additional help?  Great to have women over 50 together.  Leonie.
