      From martyh1950 July 23

      PLEASE hang in there. I know its hard and yes stress does make worse. My doc put me on an anti depressant, I didnt want to go on one but he said it will help calm my brain which makes my IC better. I am also sticking to the diet by the letter, PLEASE stick to the diet. Are you on Elmiron and have you had bladder coatings? Also alot of people say the OTC drug "Prelief" is good but I just drink a little backing soda water before I eat something that may not agree with me. So sorry to hear about the divorce, I will say a prayer for you and here is the biggest hug ever. oxoxoLaura
