I have Cystitis that I'm told by the doctor is associated with the BCG treatments I took for bladder cancer..He said it would "go away" but here I am 3 months later homebound..Currently taking Benedryl (which actually helps a little), Baking soda (1 tsp in water) twice a day, and I just ordered the IC Aloe Vera capsules..I also have some Oxycodone the Doctor prescribed (but that won't last long)...regardless of what I'm doing the urgency + stinging on urination continues, along with the sporadic vice like spasms from time to time...continue. I forgot to mention I drink about a gallon of water a day..all in all it seems hopeless, I can't continue living with the heating pad either....Is there just something I'm missing?
