CONTENTS Home Our Center Information Articles Our Director ... Our Advisory Board Kay's book: Ten Myths about Doctors: What you can do to Dispel Them IC Research-STAR Project Kay's Story Links Introduction This site is dedicated to helping Interstial Cystitis patients, or those suspecting they may have IC, or those having chronic bladder problems such as pelvic pain, urinary frequency, burning and urgency or pressure. Throughout you will find articles by Kay Benton, IC patient and founder of the site, and by Dr. Paul Fugazzotto who pioneered the broth culturing of urine which usually uncovers difficult to grow bacteria. Dr. Fugazzotto usually finds this bacteria and some articles on this site describe his philosophy of diagnosing and treating these bacterial infections. In addition there are articles by Ruth Kriz who healed her IC with antibiotics and used appropriate supplements to help her immune system and damaged bladder tissues. B J Czarapata, CRNP, CURN, explains her unique approach to treating IC, and Kay Benton has several articles about how to be successful using long term antibiotic therapy and how to treat yeast problems which often accompany this treatment regimen. Sad News: It is with deepest regret I must inform you that the ICIC director/founder, Kay Hutchison Benton, passed away on February 21st, 2003.

66. Digital Urology Journal: Urethral Syndrome And Interstitial Cystitis A look at urethral syndrome and interstitial cystitis, their symptoms, diagnosis and treatment. http://www.duj.com/cystitis.html

URETHRAL SYNDROME Urethral syndrome refers to a primarily female syndrome in which women suffer from irritative bladder symptoms (urinary frequency, urgency, burning, and more) in the absence of any objective urologic findings. That is to say, when they under medical evaluation their physicians discover no specific findings to account for their symptoms. Because the symptoms of urethral syndrome are similar to symptoms common for many irritative bladder problems, the diagnosis of urethral syndrome is often delayed. Symptoms, Causes, and Diagnosis Once again, the irritative symptoms accompanying urethral syndrome include: urinary frequency, urgency and burning in addition to possible low buck pain, suprapubic pain, and hesitant or slowed urinary stream. Because these symptoms are so common with other urinary problems, your physician must eliminate other disease possibilities and diagnose urethral syndrome by exclusion. Many urethral syndrome patients were initially told that they have recurrent urinary infections. Upon closer history, however, it is discovered that their supposed urinary infections have been poorly documented. Other disease processes which must be excluded are: Chlamydia infections, Ureaplasma infections, neurological disorders, gynecological disorders, bladder tumors, urethral narrowing, interstitial cystitis (see below) and more. Your physician may wish to perform certain tests in order to clarify the diagnosis. These tests may include X-ray studies and bladder studies. The X-rays may be done in order to be sure there is no stone or other physical abnormality. The bladder studies may include cystoscopy, which allows direct visual inspection of the interior of the bladder.

Subscribe now >> Interstitial Cystitis of the Bladder Q: I am a female in my 70's and have had a cystoscopy under sedation and was diagnosed as having an inflammation of the bladder. I was told to avoid coffee, tea, chocolate and diet sodas. I'm taking Prosed DS twice a day but it doesn't seem to be helping that much. Are there other foods I should avoid or is there anything else I could do to give me relief from the almost continuous burning feeling? A: You may have interstitial cystitis which is a chronic problem of the bladder mainly experienced by women. Besides pain and burning, patients often feel an urgency to void and urinate very frequently in small amounts, have pelvic pressure with sitting, and experience pain with sex which may persist for days afterwards. Some women have ulcers or bleeding of the bladder. The good news is that you are not alone. Over 500,000 women may suffer from IC and the Interstitial Cystitis Association is an excellent organization which has up-to-date information on research and treatment of this baffling disorder.
