The IC Network has available Restroom Access Cards for Interstitial Cystitis patients. It is basically a medical alert card that IC patients can show when they are out and about and are having problems accessing a restroom. The Restroom Access Card is only $1.50 including shipping and it says the following:
MEDICAL ALERT
Restroom Access Required
The holder of this card has
Interstitial Cystitis, a medical
condition that requires frequent
and urgent restroom access.
It is difficult, if not impossible,
for this patient to ‘hold it’
without enduring severe pain and
or bladder spasms. Please provide
restroom access to this patient.
Your cooperation is greatly
appreciated.
