Interstitial cystitis is the term I was looking for! That's what my doctor pinned it to be. But then it went away and came back. I also think mine is stress related. My anxiety has gotten drastically better and suddenly this is back again? Seems like my body is moving the stress elsewhwhere since anxiety doesn't have a hold on me anymore. -_- Not that I don't still get it from time to time.
Just something to consider which i have noticed now but took a while to connect the dots! I get this feeling often when i need to poop and cant.. Its gas pressure building up in that region and pushing down.
Ps i thought i had that IC too and was freaked out big time! I was looking up biofilms and bacteria infections this morning andit seems cranberry helps prevent biofilm formation and bacteria adhering to the walls so im considering taking it more often. Apparently it helps reduce the bad strep strain! Fascinating stuff.
Hmm, I'm not sure that's what my issue is. But it makes sense that that could be it! I mean I don't FEEL constipated lol
I used to take cranberry supplements and unfortunately they didn't work. -_-
