Does anyone here have interstitial cystitis (bladder pain/discomfort), and, if so, what treatments have you used with success? This is new for me; just started about a week ago. No insurance, so can't afford a trip to a doctor. However, my doctor did phone in a prescripton for Bactim-DS when I called and told him that I thought I had a bladder infection. The 5-day course of the antibiotic didn't make a difference, though, and I'm in agony. Have found dozens of websites on interstitial cystitis, and the symptoms sound exactly like mine. Over-the-counter AZO was recommended a lot, so I bought a box of AZO today, with no relief now after 2 doses. Hoping to hear what has worked for others.

Does anyone on here have interstitial cystitis?...sm
I was just wondering. I was diagnosed with this in September after having problems for a while with my bladder. It is a painful and fustrating illness. I was just looking for someone else who knows how I feel. It comes and goes. I mean I am not in pain all the time but sometimes.
Anyone on here with interstitial cystitis that has found anything over-the-counter that has
helped this problem.
