Possible interstitial cystitis

My symptoms started 3 months ago with a vaginitis and possible UTI. Got 2 different treatment and I still had pain all over my lower abdomen. It felt like I had PID, but none of the doctors believed my pain, I just had a little inflammation left. Ultrasound and gyno exams were always negative.

Thought I might have an STD, so I went to a clinic, they tested me for Chlamydia, gonorrhoea, mycoplasma, ureaplasma all negative. After the test results , I started to have UTI symptoms , unimaginable pain in my bladder, frequent urination. They did a urine culture , but it was negative. Went back to another gyno, who find at my posterior wall a small painful, movable nodule. He said I might have endometriosis , because of the excruciating pain I was having. Changed my birth controll pills to ones that contained dienogest. The pain lessen, but the.UTI symptoms remained so he prescriebed me antibiotics and uva ursi which help a.little bit , but I still have occasionally pain and pressure feeling in my genital area. I don't know exactly where I feel this but I know something is really off and weird. I haven't been myself in 3 months now. I did the CA 125 but it was in a normal range. I never had painful menstruation before, I am on birth control for 2,5 years now and I absolutely feel nothing. Never had problem during sex. My question is , can this be a sign of interstitial cystitis? The constant pressure feeling and possible urehtral pain? Sometimes It feels like a really bad UTI. I don't want to have an unnecessary lap. But the birth controll pills did lessen my symptoms a little bit. Or maybe I have Endo with interstitial cystitis? My vagina isn't inflamed right know, it doesn't sting when I pee. Does anyone have this weird pressure feeling? Doctors are freaking clueless and I'm loosing hope and this all started with an inflammation, stinging pee that wasn't treated well.
