[QUOTE="meggy1, post: 393958"] Hi, I can totally relate you what you are going through! Other than the medical condition it could have been me writing your post. I have a 12 year old daughter who has Interstitial Cystitis (something like painfull bladder syndrome). She has always been a strong willed child and has gotten much worse over the past year.
