For years no, decades, I have had an on an off problem where if I don't drink water often enough, eat spicy foods or too many sweets, eventually I wind up with horrible burning and discomfort. It takes DAYS of drinking gallons of water to finally put the fire out.
It has felt so bad this time, like always, I get a UA done to make sure there is no infection. The day I left the specimen, it was very clear amber due to my drinking lots of water that morning. I felt better yesterday, yet still draggy and no energy, but the burning was better, about gone. Now today it seems not quite as good. I didn't get the lab results back before the weekend, but I feel confident there will be no infection like the other times I've had irritation. I wonder if there is such a thing as a hypersensitive urinary tract? If so, I have it big time! Every time this is like this, it makes me feel bad all over. I guess when the prostate is irritated, being a gland, it can affect how you feel all over. I hope I can get over this. I am still drinking lots of water.
My questions are is there such a thing as a hypersensitive urinary tract and prostate? And 2. What can be done to improve this. A certain vitamin or mineral? Saw Palmetto? Lots of Vitamin D? I am low on Vit. D and for sure, my hormone level is low according to recent tests.
Thanks so much.
