I know this is a message that is redundant, but, I need to say it again once more bc it is so important!

There are numerous instances, and I had another one today where someone is undergoing treatment and disrupting its effectiveness by using various kinds of skin care or hair care products not realizing that they are having an adverse effect.

About two months ago, I was horrified because one of my patients in another country was discovered to have been contacting an institution in Switzerland in order to inquire about euthanasia. 

Until now, I had no idea that it was legal in that country. Her family was keeping close watch on her to make sure she was safe. She said she no longer wanted to live in this pain and that there was no hope. She has IC and two other problems simultaneously.

A patient asked me to post this website bc she liked the recipes on it bc she likes the gluten free recipes. So, I am posting the link. I want to say however, I do not advocate the use of coconut products for IC even post treatment. So, you could use almond milk or raw milk as a substitute in those recipes where it is indicated.

Also, I have not read through this site, so I am ot standing behind any of its information. 

I hope you all enjoy the recipes!!

Many of you with IC have painful intercourse, and go on to have great, normal sex lives. Hopefully, you will read this if you are interested:

I am sorry for the late notice, but, the support meeting will be Saturday the 3rd 2:30 Pacific time.

I am having a hard time accommodating everyone's needs before my vacation. And, this was the best time so that I could get everything done.

I hope this works for everyone. I look forward to speaking to everyone!:)

So interesting I had several conversations today, as I do on many days, about people being able to tolerate foods or supplements that they once could not at all.
