  1. A Different Road

    Well I see a different fork in the road for me. I have had another terrible night. I was dizzy & lightheaded, no energy and was up half the night. This could be several things.

    I suspect I am just not getting the nutrition I need in this diet. My diet limitations are playing havoc on what I need to do. I can't drink much more than a quart and a half a day of water. Some days with the increase water content in the food I am eating, not that much. So this could also be dehydration. ...

  2. I slipped up

    I have been doing pretty darn good this week and then yesterday we got busy and we just decided to order a pizza because it was late when we got home. I ate a couple of pieces.

    I also yesterday found a health food store and picked up a few things including Hemp Seed Nut. I have never had it before.

    I ate some of it last night also.

  3. Hard finding my food.

    I am having a difficult time finding even raw nuts & seeds here locally where I live. I know if I start ordering a bunch of stuff that won't go over well.

Every now and then I will take just a tiny bit of what I make him just so there are no problems. Most of the time though I have been eating all RAW.

    I am going to have to explore more options and see what I can come ...

    I am doing so much better than yesterday. I had a very long, hard day at work and was very tired last night. I did real well though with my food yesterday. I have decided to stop taking another bladder medication I was trying. It is a glucosamine, chondrotan, quecerian, something else combo that is in a olive oil, very pure formulation, designed specifically for IC and there has been some success with it for those who can tolerate it.

    Some people do react to some of it and can't ...

  5. The day can only get better

    Here I am at 3:30 am. I am having a terrible night with my bladder pain & freq. I really don't know for sure that it was caused today from anything I ate. I have been trying a new supplement that if it worked for me could have maybe helped heal my bladder. I think I am flaring from some of the ingredients, some people do.

    So I think for the next few days, I am going to stop taking it and flush out my system with water and see if that helps.

    I am not stopping ...
