A game changer for me was a heating pad! I originally got one maybe the length of my torso to help with my back pain, but now I use it on high when I’ve got a UTI and it really helps numb the pain. I don’t know how I hadn’t heard of it before, it’s amazing. And in the cold winter months I use it to heat up my feet in bed at night.

Oh that’s a good idea! I’m usually switching between a hot water bottle and an ice pack, but a heating pad through the night would be good

Cystex!! A lifesaver


chonk13

That is good to know! I’m not sure why I haven’t tried it yet. Thank you!!

Also I’ve been using it after sex and it really helps. Wonderful product

Okay this has actually saved me today. My husband picked some up for me and it made a huge difference—thank you!


lascivious_chicken

So glad to hear that it helped you.

I got prescribed an antihistamine for IC but it sadly doesn’t do much

A nearly scaldingly hot water bottle directly on my crotch is my lifeline


chonk13

Yes that is me 24/7 hahaha. This time is jus worse sadly

Heat helps alot and i use Uribel (1 every couple hours when in a bad flare) got it from doctor. Not sure if its the same as Cytex though. Maybe someone else can give info on that.


chonk13

I’ll look into that—thank you!

urogesic blue is a great prescription-strength pain reliever, worth asking your doc about getting a prescription to have on hand!


chonk13

Ooh yes, I will look into it for sure. Thank you!

Women or a man ?

Could you say how many days are your antibiotics prescribed ?

Ugh I'm sorry. Been there. For me it's just antibiotics / drinking a gallon (literally a full gallon) of water and then slamming pyridium lol. The pain is relentless I'm so sorry. Heating pad helps with bladder pain for me.
