Interstitial Cystitis
"I tried Elmiron for 6 months.  It caused headaches at first, but those stopped after a few weeks.  Two months in, I started losing hair.  Once it started, it didn&#039;t stop.  I lost hair all over, so I didn&#039;t have any bald spots, but my hair is STILL visibly thinner than it used to be (stopped taking Elmiron 8 months ago).  It also had no effect on my symptoms.  I did, however, find some relief from a combo of other drugs: amitriptyline, hydroxyzine, gabapentin, uribel, myrbetriq, tramadol, and vaginal valium.  I also to take prelief, desert harvest aloe vera, and I try to stick with the IC diet.  Good luck to everyone.  IC sucks."
