@Jeanne51 I've just come across your post years later when researching Elmiron. I wondered how things worked out for you - are you any better?

Hi answering this post 7 years later. My IC is still a major problem. I.have botox injections but still having flare ups and this has destroyed my life. Im so fed up that I am thinking of requesting my bladder removal. Bladder transplants are in their infancy. 😭

Elmiron failed
Take Regurin. Merobegron, oxybutin and botox injections supposedly every 6 months.

Oh @Jeanne51 I'm so sorry to hear that. It sounds awful.

My problem turned out to be a mixture of a condition called Aerobic Vaginitis and genitourinary syndrome of the menopause. Im not completely better but treating the infection and taking topical and systemic HRT made me feel loads better.
