Is there any lady diagnosed with interstitial cystitis during peri?

Hi evi
Yes unfortunately. It started last November with difficulty weeing, burning, low abdominal pain, going to the loo then peeing my pants, temperature etc. Still get it but I try to manage it with over the counter medicines. I have seen a urologist but my symptoms had been better since taking bhrt, but next bowt I'll be going back to the hospital for an investigation. Hope you are coping okay x
I had a horrible episode last spring and searched for answers online after levaquin was not helping. I have read horrible stories of the side effects of levaquin and started experiencing them myself in addition to the bladder issues. Our bladder has a lining and if it gets inflamed, yikes! I’ve had chronic UTI all my life and was prescribed Cipro (as given for most bladder, kidney issues)a year ago and it gave me tendon damage. I couldn’t use my arm. I researched levaquin and cipro and the side effects were horrendous. I searched for natural cures and cured mine with mixing baking soda and water into a drink, prelief pills, aloe Vera pills, oregano pills, ( natural antibiotic) D mannose pills . The vaginal area can become inflamed from ph being out of balance. Doctors are not much help. Research Cystitis. I still take aloe Vera daily as it helps many tissues. Our bladder, intestines and other organs have a lining that can become inflamed. I try to keep a more alkaline diet, also. Acidity seems to become a problem for most as we age. I have not had a UTI since. UTI are so painful that I had to find a solution as it was robbing my quality of life. 🦋
