Last week, popular television show "The Doctors" did a segment on Interstitial Cystitis. I am so excited to see such a huge TV show bringing awareness to IC. It is so rare to see this illness discussed in any health magazine or on any TV program, and when it is mentioned, IC is typically oversimplified to a "chronic UTI." Though I think a lot more time could have been spent on this segment, and I also think that (as usual) the importance of alternative treatments in beating IC was ignored, this segment is a great start to spreading awareness. Hopefully, those who saw the segment realize how serious and traumatic this illness can be.
