Fellow UK PBS sufferer here (plus chronic migraines and fibromyalgia), thanks for the spray tip! It can be hard to find self help tips that actually work, much appreciated 💕
As per your video for bladder pain/Interstitial Cyntitis:
Dos
1) pain relief : water with couple of drops of peppermint essential oil, Goal is to numb the area, instant relief
2) pumpkin seed oil capsules 2 per night (bladder conditions for men/women) or organic pumpkin seed oil (2-3 times a day), can be taken with custurd or soya dessert
3) Amitriptyline (10-40mg) also causes drowsiness or take Nortiptyline
4) Bicarbonate Soda (baking soda) with bath: high relief when person is getting flare up, OR
cycstopurin: changes the alkalinity of passing urine
5) No caffien at all !
DONT'S
1) No Alcohol , No smoke , No caffien
Thank you, Thank you for these bladder related videos 🙏!! I’m 30 and am suddenly suffering from painful bladder and urge incontinence. I’ve been in agony with the pain and have felt severely depressed about it all, crying down the phone to my doctor who’s not sure what to do with me health wise! I’ve been prescribed a bladder medication but thought I’d try some natural remedies first. Your videos have given me hope! I’ve switched to decaf tea + keeping a bladder diary + bladder training and im about a week into taking pumpkin seed oil everyday, I’ve also been having a cup of nettle and mint tea daily. It’s early days but im noticing improvement in pain and less urgency! Thank goodness for natural remedies!! Im going to try some of the other tips you mention here too. You have helped me feel less alone and I really appreciate it 🙏😊.
Thank you so much for this video. I have been only getting about 3 hrs of interrupted sleep at night during a flare
I've been completely exhausted. I am going to order the pumpkin seed oil now!❤
Thanks for the update Karen. I use organic pumpkin seed oil 2-3 times a day mixed into a small amount of custard or soya dessert and it has massively helped with the pain which for me was normally in the day. I also have to drink lots of water as well and that regime works for me. Your hair looks stunning as well, your video on peri hair was also very helpful.
Thank you so much for this! I’ve watched quite a few videos since symptoms started a few months ago, and you are the only one who mentioned the spray & to avoid wearing jeans.
Hope you are feeling good & thanks again! 🥰
Your hair looks fab!
I was dx w this three weeks ago. So life changing. I cannot even have a sip of alcohol or swim in a pool 🏊♂️ without it putting me into a flare. I am getting so depressed that I can’t do anything anymore. I just want one glads of wine and to enjoy the water. 😢
I know how depressing it is Emma and I promise you it will get better. I couldn't do any alcohol, swimming, cycling, even wear jeans, but now I can do pretty much all of those! xx
@@TheBeautyMaverick that is wonderful. Thank you for giving me hope because right now I am struggling. Can you please share what made you better when you have time? Thank you so much. 🙏🏻 ❤️
I will definitely look into the pumpkin seed oil. 👍🏻
So helpful. Thank you
I'm diagnosed with this but my symptoms are pretty much constant. I get the odd day where it's less painful but most days I'm in agony. It feels just like I have a UTI all the time. I keep getting given antibiotics from the doctors every few weeks. Even though my urine tests come back normal in the past they still give me antibiotics Whilst I'm on them I'm not in pain. Sometimes I can get a week or two without symptoms after a course of antibiotics. But then the symptoms come back. I'm on pregabalin 50 mgs twice daily. It doesn't help much. I was advised not to have alcohol or caffeine atal. Not even decaffeinated drinks for tea I was told red bush tea only because it's naturally caffeine free. I also find soya milk is a no no. I never wear jeans because I find them really uncomfortable. I will try the capsules you mentioned. I'm willing to try anything at this stage!
Have you tried amitripline
I have it for almost 3 weeks and can’t go to the Urologist until March 23 And I am amitriptyline only 20 mg can’t wait until I get over this pain
So sorry to hear this, hopefully some of my remedies will help with your pain. x
Thank you! ❤️❤️
I wish they made comfortable panties!
Luckily for me in America, Interstitial cystitis is not classified as a disability, and there is no way to go on my short term disability insurance unless a doctor agrees, and the insurance agrees.
I wanted to send you a dm on your IG, do you have one?
Yes, here it is, but I can't reply quickly as I have arthritis in my hands which makes it hard to type on a phone. instagram.com/the_beauty_maverick/
