'Bushwhacked'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
It's also called Interstitial Cystitis.

Mine has gone apparently gone away because I'm able to eat tomatoes in a fairly regular basis now.
My urologist also recommended OTC pain killer to help with the pain as well.

Oh! I've heard of that. I...actually have a lot of IC symptoms, but the problem is that they're also the symptoms of a lot of other things. V. frustrating.
There's some research that shows Vitamin D helps with the symptoms and once I started taking it regularly that's when I was able to eat more.
But mine was always very mild and controlled by diet. I haven't had a UTI in a year (which is a big deal for me) but last year when I had a UTI I'd only eat my "safest" foods - corn, white rice, chicken or beef, parsley, fennel, garlic, potatoes, and milk. Which is a very limited diet but I would only do that for a few days and it would help the pain of the UTI,
Bactrim is also really good for uti's so I'm glad you at least have that in case you have one. Definitely don't let this drop if you don't have a uti, like others here have said, there could be other causes.

Oh, I won't. The symptoms are too intense to ignore. The NP said the next step would probably be a CT scan of my lower abdomen if it turns out to not be a UTI.
it recent years I have been "making my own yogurt" by getting the nonfat plain yogurt in the grocery store, taking it home, straining it overnight to get excess moisture out, then adding fresh fruit and a bit of honey. thick yogurt with fresh fruit and just a bit of sweet is perfect.
cut to today's lunch adventure when I got some light yoplait blueberry yogurt. It was so fucking sweet I couldn't take it. Done. I had to toss it out. I guess I accidentally have been spoiling myself.
I've developed an allergy to Bactrim, so I'm lucky the UTI phase is calmer now.

OH MY GOD.
I have ongoing yoghurt issues, because I can't find enough of the right stuff. Apparently if you want other than plain or vanilla in quantity, Yoplait is the only person with flavours, and they have so much sugar. This is rework every time I go shopping. I shouldn't need to have notes.
Anyone here know anything about medical coding? I got a really wierd charge on a statement that i suspect was a type-o on a procedure code but the interwebs are not helping much and my call to contest the statement kinda ended with "well, I'll sent it to the review board, that can take a few months, in the meantime your account might be sent to a collection agency..." which kinda peeves for something that I'm 100% certain was not part of my office visit.
