Big Meal = Less Burning. Anyone?

[kingofpain]

Somtimes, when my urethral burning is killing me,
after a big meal, I notice the burning is much less.
This usually lasts for a few hours.
Anybody else have this happen?
Any explanations?
Thanks

Right off the only possibility I can think of is the big meal, -assuming it's IC safe food & drink, is diluting the acids which are otherwise in your bladder causing less irritation.

I often find that when I flare it seems to help to run as much through my bladder as possible (within reason). It's like it cleans out whatever was causing the problem.
