Hey!
I searched all over the place for info on this and to no avail. It appears that nobody else has had this problem. I hope not! I am in a flare (seems i have strep b as well and that could be part of the problem) so I've been taking pyridium on and off at night with elavil. 90% of the time i do this I have problems sleeping and wake up every few hours having to pee. Never have this with elavil alone, max i'll get up to pee is a few times in the morning, but never every few hours. It seems the pyridium stops my ability to sleep well. anybody else have this?
and on a side note, has anybody had strep b found in a broth culture and gotten much better with their IC after antibiotics? (my new doc is a long-term antibiotic person) and i haven't started the antibiotics yet.
Thanks for any and all help!
