Interstitial Cystitis
"I thought I was having frequent UTI&#039;s the majority of my life. I did everything I could think of to prevent and treat them. The summer of 2013 and multiple negative UTI tests, I was tested for IC and a test to see the size of my bladder. Turns out my bladder was VERY large for my size. I not only began taking Elmiron (two pills twice a day) but also had to retrain by bladder by &quot;going&quot; every two hours. After about two months I started to finally feel relief that I had been searching for for over 10 years. I have been on Elmiron for almost two years. I have dropped from 4 pills a day, down to 3, and now down 2 a day.  I stay away from lemon and very citrus/acidic foods. My goal is to be off Elmiron by the time I want kids. No side effects"
