Have had fibro for 30 years

Posted By Carolj (Palatka, Fl) on 09/01/2011

Help!!! Have had fibro for 30 yrs and IC for 5. Sex is impossible. I can hardly wipe myself after urinating at times. So I mean no intimacy. I just started w/a new urologist and return next week. I can't bring myself to douche, but the boric acid capsules sound promising. Can there b long term bad effects from this? My diet is very good and I have fibro massage 2Xs a wk. The pain wakes me in the middle of night and I take pain meds. I want something natural.

I too have had IC for yrs. Since 2001 but now I do get times that its not as bad as others. Juices and fruits are a must to stay away from. I was reading about the borac acid as well and am thinking about trying it. Also read where you can take coconut oil and add oregano oil and mold the size of capsule and insert into the vagina. They claim is that it kills bacteria and others are getting relief. I haven't tried it but am going too. Also I see where they are taking turmeric capsules daily along with probiotics. Hope this helps...
