 The best IC book July 15, 2008
This is probably the best IC book ever written and will ever be written. Dr. Moldwin is also a great dr! If you have IC, you NEED this book!
Surviving Interstitial Cystitis June 9, 2008
My urologist, a very wise man, recommended this book. It has turned the light on for me, answering so many questions I have had for years, and, as the title indicates, it is a survival and coping guide. Years ago, a gynecologist told me that my symptoms were a result of my getting older. I didn't need a "specialist" to tell me that. I just needed to learn and understand what was happening to me, and, more importantly, what I can do. I highly recommend this book as an excellent place to start.
Men also can have IC December 17, 2007

This is an excellent resource for the IC patient. What Dr. Moldwin says is unfortunately very true that "the male IC patient often has more difficulty receiving a diagnosis and ultimate treatment than the female IC patient."
For over three years I have been suffering from symptoms which my urologist said was due to BPH or enlargement of the prostate. I felt there was something else going on and did my own research on the Internet and decided it might be IC. I received two treatments with DMSO which helped only slightly. That urologist retired and the next one simply said this was a BPH problem and the only solution was surgery ... and I could come back when I was ready for surgery. After changing urologists, I finally got someone who was a diagnostician, he did a potassium test (PST), and we finally got a clear diagnosis of IC. His recommendation of Dr. Moldwin's book was a great gift.
The diet recommendations in this book were, for me, worth the price of the book! I am amazed that the foods I eat have such a major impact on my symptoms. If you are a man (or woman), and think you may have IC ... this is the book for you.

I found this book informative, but I must admit a bit outdated in the I.C world. It does provide some insight into the condition as well as the devleopement of treatments and research.
