Hi,

For how long has this been going on?

Do you have any history of recurrent urinary tract infections?

Have you had a urinalysis or urine culture done?

Do keep us posted with your answers.

Hi,

Has your physician discussed with you interstitial cystitis?

Have you been assessed along this line?

When was your last urinalysis done?

This may be one of the differentials. A potassium sensitivity test as well as a cystoscopy is usually used for diagnosis . Although the medical history and physical examination will be able to help.

no the physician has'nt suggested anything he just looks at u like your wasting him time and that your ok,i reckon i have interstitial cystitis but this is normally assosiated with women im told,the urine sample was done a few times the doctor would dip a thin piece of paper with colors into the sample, a potassium test and a cystoscopy would that help to diagnose something,thanks
