Oooooooh, I think I am getting cystitis! Why why why? It is so unfair, I drink sooooooooooo much water all the time! Maybe I have an infection - dunno. All I know is I have this awful pressure and need to a pee and nothing much happens and it hurts! Used to get this alot and though I had it under control. To make it worse, I am travelling this weekend (flying) so going to have to sit near the loo's. I am armed however with my trusty pot of Bicarbonate of soda and I have the Uva Ursi tincture. The guys on the customs check will probably arrest me for being in possession of bizarre substances! Wish me luck!

Hey - well I made it in one piece and it didn't flare up into a massive issue. Just drank and drank water til the cows came home and it seemd to pass! I guess I'll just have to be more alert to it from now on. I was quite tired towards the end of last week and that is when you can end up picking things up. More sleep required!
Ouchy, what is Pyridium? haven't heard of it before!

Pyridium is a wonderful thing they give you for the pain associated with urinary tract infections, and will probably help with cystitis, as well. It does turn your urine a color varying from a very saturated yellow to a nearly red-orange, so don't be alarmed. And... if I were you, I'd be sure to wear pantyliners while on it, especially if you're like me, and always end up in the stall with no toilet paper.
