IC Factoid: Nine times out of ten when someone calls the ICN
office complaining of pain they admit that they are still
drinking regular coffee, green tea or diet soda. You must look
for lower acid variations (or stop them altogether) to help
reduce bladder irritation and/or prevent further flares. If you’re
in pain, the last thing you should do is expose your bladder to
these caustic beverages. If soda will take the rust off of a
penny, just imagine what it could be doing to your bladder.

Intimacy Aids for Men and Women
When one partner has pain or discomfort with intimacy, being
creative is vital to help you and your partner enjoy sex. There
are alternatives that can help. Do you TENGA? This new
intimacy aid works well for those moments when intercourse
is too painful. Similarly, Liberator furniture wedges can
introduce some fun while taking tension off of the lower back
or pelvic floor. Pyrex glass wands can be gently warmed or
cooled to help with pelvic floor tension or spasms. Find these
and more directly on our website at: www.icnsales.com. Look
in the “Romance & Intimacy” Category.
IC Factoid: Discomfort with sex is often associated with very
tight pelvic floor muscles. For men with IC, the worst pain
often occurs at the moment of ejaculation. For women, it’s
usually the day afterward. Muscle relaxing strategies (i.e.
heat, muscle relaxants, etc.) can help. Check the ICN Sexuality
& Intimacy Resource Center for tips and strategies.

What is IC/BPS?
Interstitial cystitis (IC), also known as painful bladder
syndrome, bladder pain syndrome or hypersensitive bladder
syndrome, is a condition that results in recurring discomfort
or pain in the bladder and the surrounding pelvic region. The
symptoms can vary greatly between individuals and even for
the same person throughout the month, including an urgent
need to urinate (urgency), a frequent need to urinate
(frequency) and, for some, pressure and/or pelvic pain. People
with severe cases of IC/BPS may urinate as many as 60 times
a day, including frequent nighttime urination (nocturia).
Pain levels can range from mild tenderness to intense,
agonizing pain. Pain typically worsens as the bladder fills and
is then relieved after urination. Pain may also radiate to the
lower back, upper legs, vulva and penis. Women’s symptoms
may fluctuate with their menstrual cycle, often flaring during
ovulation and/or just before their periods. Men and women
may experience discomfort during or after sexual relations.
IC affects patients of all ages, races and cultures. It is found
on every continent in the world. Though it was previously
thought to be a disease affecting mostly women, new studies
suggest that men suffering from chronic non-bacterial
prostatitis may also have IC, thus dramatically expanding the
population data. It is not unusual for IC to run in families,
nor for patients to struggle with a syndrome of related
conditions including: IBS, anxiety disorder, vulvodynia,
pelvic floor dysfunction, allergies, migraines and
fibromyalgia.
There are many treatments and self-help strategies now
available that can help improve bladder symptoms
dramatically. One excellent place to gather information is on
the IC Network website (http://www.ic-network.com), where
you can read extensive articles on IC as well as participate in
our support forum and chats.
We believe in you!
You are not alone!
