Hello everyone - this is going to be quite the "tmi" post but I need answers.

Since forever I have dealt with uti symptoms "pre- lyme." I would get a script from the doctor for macrobid and after even one pill I would feel significantly better.

This past summer I began to experience frequent bouts of bladder pain. It was terrifying. First time it lasted for a month. I was in and out of urologists/gynos. No answers. Nothing was working. I had an "ah-ha" moment and realized maybe lyme has invaded my bladder because once I started back on Doxy for a week pain subsided.

Currently, I have been dealing with constant bladder pain. No frequency. Solely just pain, irritation and overall discomfort especially when sitting. Sometimes the pain comes with nausea which makes me feel exactly how I did a year ago when I first started dealing with Lyme.

Whats crazy is shaving the genital area causes it to flare (to which I stopped). Even scarier... I was symptom free for a month and went to a restaurant bathroom, wiped with their toilet paper and bam bladder pain.

When I eat better and take supplements I tend to feel better. I am just not sure why this keeps happening basically monthly and why I haven't been able to get rid of it.

I am beginning to work with new LLMD. I hope this issue subsides.

Talk to your llmd about Bartonella, I had severe feeling of Uti and soreness/pain symptoms in my insides.. Horrible sensations of a BSD uti but tested. Negative for uti.

Treating for lyme and bartonella cleared up those symptoms
Hope you get some relief soon

I just posted about this! It’s a very terrible pain for me while herxing but more subtle when I am not.😓

I have had bladder/urethra pain with frequency off and on ever since I had a bad reaction to monistat 1 for yeast infection.

I can no longer take epsom salt baths because it flares it up. Antibiotics have always made it worse too. I do notice diflucan and motrin help it feel better. So for me, the cause may be yeast. But I really don’t know for certain.

I have read about some with interstitial cystitis flaring with certain toilet papers. I had explored that and stopped using charmin ultra soft. It did seem to help some. I now use whole foods brand.

Have you tried the natural stuff like d-mannose, marshmallow root, uva ursi and specific probiotics for urinary health?
