Ouch! I have been having urinary pain. Feels like UTI
Having spasms and urgency to pee but don't have anything to pee.
When I do it burns.
I have had this a few times in the past several months and it 3 tests all came back negative and didn't grow anything

Any clues as to what this is?
Please help I am so uncomfortable and cystex is clearly not an option.

Thanks guys!

You can try CranRich super strength cranberry concentrate capsules.

D-Mannose might help.

Have you been checked by a urologist?

Thanks for your quick reply heather.
If it is not an infection, how would something that is meant to prevent an infection help?
I have tried drinking cranberry juice without any help
But the pills are probably more potent.

I'm going to look at the d Mannos


I have not seen a urologist, my pcp suggested I might but I politely declined becuse I see so many docs already. But now I'm feeling that may have been a bad idea.

No, it's not a bad idea to see a urologist.

Cranberry juice doesn't do what concentrated cranberry capsules can.....I went through a few days of needing to go more often than usual...so I started taking them. seemed to help.

I went through spasms like that after a tubal ligation with a horrible bladder infection. It cleared, but I had one or two after that...mild,...but more spasming and cloudy urine with no infection. My doc sent me to a urologist.
He suspected interstitial cystitis, especially since I had UC.
He did a bladder scope, and interestingly, I never had a problem after that!! Must have flushed out something I guess.

you're best to get it dealt with. There could be a simple explanation. What you don't want is a very mild infection happening and it travelling to your kidneys.

Dicyclomine also helps with bladder spasming.

Thanks!! You have convinced me. Will call my doc tomorrow and ask him to recommend a urologist.

Also can try the capsules if it works better than the juice.

If increasing salt causes stone to worsen and IF it's a stone I'm screwed cuz I eat about 120000 times the recommended amount for salt
