Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
I have suffered from interstitial cystitis for eight years. I thought I had tried everything, acupuncture and herbs, long term antibiotics, Elmiron, even narcotics. I was so desperate I tried the Interstim, but got an infection. The thought had crossed my mind to even have my bladder removed. I admit there were times I felt so discouraged I even contemplated leaving this planet...I can't tell you how many different doctors and urologists I have seen. A friend with IC in a support group recommended this book and finally, after all these years I am starting to get my life back. Amrit Willis is right, you can heal IC. After reading this book, I started with her suggestions and after a couple of weeks I was only getting up once at night to use the bathroom instead of my usual 6 or 8 times. I started her alkalizing approach and worked on my allergies first as she recommends. My bladder pain has gone from an excrutiating level to barely noticable. It is so incredible. And there are so many other steps in her book I have not even done yet. Best of all her approach is natural. For anyone who feels like I did, that there is no hope, buy this book, it will change your life. Thanks to her chapter on sex, my husband and I are thrilled since our sex life is the best it has been in our 10 years of marriage. It is like a second honeymoon. I agree, Amrit is a God send. Thank you Amrit for writing this book.
