Dr Moldwin was one of my Professors during my fellowship training at LIJ he is marvelous. We just published a clinical review on IC/PBS in BMJ August 8, 2009. I trust his judgement implicitly. If you are in NYC or the surrounding Metro area he is the physician to see.

Angela,
I have heard that when men get IC/PBS it tends to be worse. I'm sorry your husband has it. I know from my own experience with it that it is AWFUL-- BEYOND AWFUL when you can't find the right treatment, are in a flare, or insurance won't cover PT for pelvic floor spasms.

Someone who has not been unfortunate enough to be stricken with Interstitial Cystitis/Painful Bladder Syndrome has no idea what the pain is like during a flare.....it ruins lives, takes careers, and destroys relationship. There are treatments, but it's a real trial and error process to get to effective treatment--even with care from an expert doctor.

as bothersome as IC is, if you are pain free, you need to agressively treat the symptoms. I was pain free for 7 yrs. & then one day the pain started (7 yrs. ago), & my life became a living hell on earth. I lost my job and now just try to make it thru each day. I wish that more attention was given to this disease. I have the hunner's ulcers and it is a miserable disease.

I have a flare up about once every few months, and they're debilitating (having one right now, unfortunately). I'm going to make a same day appointment tomorrow, or visit urgency care, because the pain I experience during urination and from pelvic floor spasms is just maddening. I wanted to post my symptoms, in solidarity with those who experience the pain acutely as I do.
