Here at the ICN, we have a very optimistic and encouraging point of view that we share through our magazine, the IC Optimist. Each quarterly issue contains practical, helpful and informative articles written by IC experts that will give you hope. From the latest research to interviews with the best clinicians in the world, we believe that you'll find practical tips in every article that will help you better understand and/or manage your interstitial cystitis. Each issue also includes superb feature stories, self-help strategies, consumer awareness notices, IC diet articles and, whenever possible, patient stories. Best of all, your purchase of an ICN Subscription helps to make possible our free IC support services. We simply couldn't offer the 300,000 free support sessions that we do each month without the generous support of our subscribers. We thank you for your help. You really do make this happen. - Jill Osborne, ICN Founder

Are you a current Angel subscriber and have not used this site before?? You will need to set up an account in our store so that we can give you your discount. You'll need to REGISTER, add your name and address and select a user name and password for your account. Once you've finished registering, PLEASE SEND AN EMAIL TO ORDERS@ICNSHOP.COM TO TELL US THAT YOU HAVE REGISTERED. It will take us roughly 24-48 hours to change your account to reflect your password so you'll want to wait a few days before ordering additional items. Don't forget, though, that you can always phone us with your order directly if time is an issue!

Are you becoming a new Angel subscriber? Would you like to use your discount? You must create an account first (i.e. register) and then order an angel subscription. Please DO NOT purchase any other items with this order because it will still take us about 24-48 hours to confirm your subscription and set up the discount for you. We'll send you an e-mail when you're all set up! If time is critical and you need your items more quickly, please phone your order in to us! If you prefer to call in your orders rather than order via this website, please call us at: (707)433-0413. Don't forget to tell us that you are an ICN subscriber!
