IC, vulvodynia, fibromyalgia, PCOS, endometriosis, migraine, electromagnetic hypersensitivity etc...

I have suffered from hormonal problems since I was 16 yrs old (1990) but got a PCOS diagnosis at almost 35 yrs old (2008). I also have problems with my thyroid and adrenal gland. I have suffered from chronic headaches since 2000 but started getting chronic migraines in 2014 at the same time my fibromyalgia symptoms started getting worse (the first signs started in 2009), I got my fibromyalgia diagnosis as well as a vulvodynia and endometriosis diagnosis in 2015. My IC symptoms started in December 2008 and I got the diagnosis in 2009, I have tried several treatments that didn´t work for me (Gepan-instillations,  Lyrica (pregabalin)  medication, hydrodistension under general anesthesia and Neen pericalm electrical stimulation among others), now I use supplements for all my diseases and keep strict diets. I also started getting problmens with electromagnetic hypersensivity in 2014 and had to make changes in my life because of that and we are presently moving from a cold and rainy to a warm and dry climate to help with the fibromaylgia.
