Post a new topicby carrolltonia on Tue Jan 27, 2009 7:09 pm

Hello I have had endrometriosis and ic for 15 years now and have pain all the time. I had a partial hysto last year now this is the year I need to work on my IC more. It is so had to work on both at the same time. I am not happy his my DRs for they for some reason will not help me with my pain. My uro said he will start me on DSMO treatment and someone will call me in two weeks. Two weeks past and no call. Can someone help me who lives in MA with a good understanding and compationate dr.

I just wanted to say that I also have been living the nitemare, I have a dr. in fall river ma. his name is dr. gagliardi, he does alot of bladder cocktails and is very understanding. I am presently looking for a pain clinic so that I can regulate the pain. I have had many instillations, and many hydrodillitations...its exhausting...I have put my life on hold and am unable to do anything...Dr. Gagliardi does the best he can, and is alway eager to listen to new procedures and or cocktails...most importantly he is compassionate about the disease...naturally he cant cure it but he does do his best to put me in a better state...
