follicular cystitis

I am a 47 year old woman, diagnosed with follicular cystitis, my question is would it be the cause of my skin burning up almost like a hot flush however I break out in a sweat and it goes into my head and causes a severe headache. I have had tests done for my oestregen levels and according to my gynae I am not going thru change of life. My oestregen levels are 100%. My uric acid levels are high. I am just concerned as I do not know what the cause of these flushes are, this has been going on for at least 2years.

Follicular cystitis is a strictly bladder disease/finding and is not related to any general symptom such as you describe.
I cannot offer you an answer as to the cause of your symptoms.
