As I was changing my diaper this morning, I was wondering about how many people have no direct causation identified for their IC sysmptoms. I know that I've had urologists say there's a high incidence of when you have bladder problems when younger that they'll return when you get older (pretty much just saying "well there's your problem" without further delving into the actual cause), or just testing for the obvious handful of causes (diabetes, MS, etc) and when they all test negative just shrugging, putting you on a rotation of prescriptions that likely will have little or no effect and moving on. If that's life as a uro doc it sounds pretty unfulfilling
Perhaps some people here can chime in, is it a small percentage (such as under 10%), a decent amount (~33%), or greater than 50%? Clearly not an objective study but more of just a feel from the crowd here - who has a known root cause of their IC, and who is left wondering why they uncontrollably pee?
