Endometriosis and IC

I have had it all! First was the endometriosis for years until I had a hysterectomy at 37 and childless. After the surgery I continued to have chronic and severe pelvic pain. After several year and I don’t know how many tests(mental and physical) the doctors finally diagnosed me with IC After going to a chiropractor for six months,(it took several different trials and errors with the chiropractors) the pain seem to cease. That was four or five years ago. Guess what? It’s back and with a vengeance. I guess it never really goes away. So once again, my search for relief continues. Any new suggestions out there?
