Dysuria/cystitis Flare Ups After 2 Hours Of Trimethoprim
I'm 17, sexually active, and I think I've got dysuria/cystitis. It started on the 1st of April, and I've still got it now. I've been the doctors where she prescribed me trimethoprim, which done nothing I've been taking cystitis relief where I get relief for about 2hours then it flares back up again. This is really stressing me out as I've got exams soon and I don't know what to do. My symptoms include dark urine, and a burning sensation when I've been for a pee even after.

After initially reading the leaflet that came with my trimethoprim i decided to check it out for myself, as some of the (not very rare!!) cases include stuff like bleeding from your eyes! and after reading the forum now deciding not to continue. i've been prescribed with a 7 day course for cystitis i cant get rid of. all i can say for now is i've taken one tablet so far and have a bad stomach and my cystitis seems to have got far worse!? although this could be coincidence. is there anyone in the same position that could offer me advice on any other drug i could take instead? this is getting me down.
View 2 RepliesWarfarin? Cystitis/bladder Infections?
Has anyone else had problems with cystitis/bladder infections when on Warfarin? This is a problem I have never ever experienced previously but for the last few days I seem to have had all the classic symptoms and am wondering if it could be Warfarin-related? I have been taking Warfarin for approx 7 months after a P/E and will be on it for life. My INR is very unstable, (currently 3.4....should be 2.5). A week ago I finished a one week course of antibiotics to try to clear up a chesty cough, (didn't).
View 2 RepliesInterstitial Cystitis - Treatment Options?
I developed excruciating burning in my bladder within the last two weeks. After ruling out a bladder infection, and after doing much Internet research, my symptoms (burning 24/7) seem to match interstitial cystitis. Has anyone received this diagnosis? It appears that the condition is chronic and very very difficult to treat, and that there are no proven treatment. There are treatments but they are pretty extreme (you can Google them under treating Interstitial Cystitis.)
So what a low blow. Can anyone out there help me? I see a urologist for the first time tomorrow. Can anyone tell me what I am in for to cure this horrible burning?
Allergies :: Sperm Allergy - Recurrent Cystitis
Yesterday after having intercourse with my boyfriend of a year and a half, i noticed that some of the sperm came in contact with my hand and broke me out in a small rash on the area that was infected. I automatically assumed i may be allergic to my partners sperm and began looking online for answers as i think it might be related to why i get recurrent cystitis. I have been tested for Thrush and UTI's in the past 6 months and also underwent a bladder/kidney scan and a cystoscopy which all came back negative. After that i was completely baffled as to what could be causing me so much pain and misery. I know i don't have any evidence that this could be the cause to all my problems but when i visited the doctor yesterday he said it is a possibility that they are connected some how.
I really just want to know if anyone has suffered from a sperm allergy before who has maybe been affected with recurrent cystitis because of it and if so how you were diagnosed to find out if you were allergic to your partner's sperm and what you did to treat it?
Cystitis :: Frequent Urination - Urine Was Pinkish
I have been experiencing frequent urge to urinate for the past 2 weeks. At first it was just annoying, I haven't experienced pain or anything so I thought it was just because of drinking plenty of water. But then, even when I didn't drink much I had the urge to go to the bathroom every one hour and I started to wake up at least once at night with the urge to urinate even when it was for very small amount of urine. For two days the colour of my urine was pinkish and I felt discomfort and pressure on my lower back. Now the colour of the urine changed to pale yellow and I feel some weird vibration in my lower back. Anyone has any idea of what this can be? I have read about UTIs but can this be UTI if I don't feel pain or burning sensation while urinating? I am just back from vacation in a foreign country and I can't see my doctor until after 3 days.. But I am starting to get concerned since it is lasting very long... I was just wondering what this can be and if it is something to worry about? Will be very grateful for comments and informations!

View 1 RepliesParasite Cleanse? Autoimmune Thyroiditis, Interstitial Cystitis, Heart Palpitations
I suffer from autoimmune thyroiditis, interstitial cystitis, heart palpitations (mostly PVCs and PACs) and Small Intestinal Bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), random inflammations that come and go and lots of debilitating symptoms. The above conditions started around the same time, so they seem to be related somehow. I've seen multiple doctors and specialists, but none of them have been able to identify the root cause of all of these conditions.
I'm thinking of doing a parasite cleanse to see if it helps. I'm kind of hesitant to try it because I've heard that it can cause really bad side effects. Has anyone tried a parasite cleanse for one or more of the above conditions? Did it help?

I am a Diabetic and have been for over 10 years. Since then I have also been diagnosed with Ulcerative colitis, cervical Osteoarthritis, and recently Diverticulosis. I had a fusion and discectomy on C5/C6 August 2014. Since the operation I have had such a bad flare up and I have trouble controlling it. I am now on steroids and hopefully this will take some control. And now I have been told I have high Potassium levels, not sure why this is, could this be because of infection?
View 3 RepliesPTSD :: Normal To Have Flare Ups?
I have suffered PTSD for over 6 years now and my PTSD has started to flare up again with vengeance this time. My PTSD hasn’t bothered me for over a year and now it’s started to come back again like it did before when I was at my worst time. To the point of me not caring about my friends or my family about what they think about me and me not really caring about their feelings, have augments with my wife over nothing but make it sound like the first thing in the world. Do you have any advice on how to get through this at the moment? I’m really struggling and just don’t know if this is normal (to have flare ups) or if I’m just giving up on the people I care about because they are selfish. Any advice would be very helpful.
