Interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) and fibromyalgia (FM) are frequently co-occurring medical diagnoses in patients referred to the urology clinic for secondary and tertiary treatment options. Abundant literature has shown that many patients with fibromyalgia have small fiber polyneuropathy (SFPN) that can be confirmed via skin punch biopsy and immunological staining to measure nerve density. This finding of SFPN provides a therapeutic target for fibromyalgia and in this article we hypothesize and provide rationale for the idea that this same phenomenon (SFPN) may explain, in some IC/BPS patients, the finding of widespread pain and likewise provide a therapeutic target for these patients. This hypothesis paper presents a rationale for evaluating small fiber polyneuropathy in interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome patients as a potential therapeutic target for wide-spread pain.
