I had a 2nd nerve block on May 6. My pain was slightly improved and I debated canceling it. The block didn't help. I actually feel worse now, but it might not be because of the block. I doubled my Gabapentin?Baclofen suppositories. I am going pack to the Pain specialist in 4 days. I am so discourage...

Violet, I never got an email that I had a message. I never had Chronic pelvic pain until my IC got very bad in 2022. I had a Cystoscopy, followed by 6 Bladder installations and internal PT.

I am waiting for a nerve block to be scheduled , which will be done by an Intervention Radiologist. Are there other Drs I should see? I generally lik...

Hi, I've had IC for almost 40 years, that was controlled with diet. I also get frequent UTI's which really inflame things. A year and half ago I started pelvic PT for the first time. I had about 12-18 sessions and after that I started having perineum pain when sitting. I also had 6 bladder installat...
