Why again? frequency and bladder pressure HELP

[bunni29]

Hi friends:

I haven't posted in almost a year b/c I have been feeling really good.
I don't take any medicine for my bladder, I just pray that it will be healed naturally.

Well this year has been the best so far UNTIL.................Friday................

I don't know what in the world happened...........but my bladder has gone crazy...........major frequency and pressure...........(no burning)............I can't sleep at night................it's waking me up about 5 times a night................and it's BAD................

I feel like it's beginning again like it was back in 2000 with extreme pressure and frequency.................

I have been eating pretty much what I want lately...........over the summer I've been eating and drinking really what I want..............

but, Friday .................my bladder went crazy...................

I haven't felt this bad in 4 years.............yes 4 YEARS..............

What happened............what has made me flare so bad.....................

So I was digging my brain on what the world did I do on Friday that could have caused this horrible flare............
I ate some cream of mushroom soup
I ate some bean and bacon soup
I had to blueberries
I had some garlic and onion chips
I took 2 Tylenol for back pain................
I had some water and honey

That's it................I've been eating and drinking this all year with no problem

I wonder why it was a problem on Friday???

any thoughts?

Please help me friends,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,I haven't been on here for so long...................what helps the frequency and the bladder pressure?

anything natural I can try?

I've been crying all weekend, b/c i just can't believe I've felt so good all year and then boom it came crashing down................not being able to sleep has been very bad as well.....................

Please friends I need your advice and help
I feel so so terrible

If you've been eating and drinking pretty much what you want this summer, it could be a build-up if you've been including things like sodas, fruits, and tomatoes. The bean soup would have put me in a flare.

You might try taking some soda in water or three or four Tums to see if it helps you out of this flare.

I also think it would be a good idea to make an appointment to see your urologist so you can get back on treatment.

Sending warm healing thoughts,
Donna

It so stinks when it socks you out of nowhere. I had a mini-flare a week or so ago that seemed to hit for no reason. I wasn't doing anything differently than I had been. It bugged me for a few days and then I was back to normal. I swear sometimes we can't peg it down.

But, like Donna said, if you have been eating potential trigger foods this summer maybe it caught up with you? Especially if you aren't on any meds to coat the bladder...

I just went through a bad flare; it was due to a UTI. I flared after the antibiotics for about 3 weeks. Am finally getting it under control. I always check for a UTI when I start flaring just in case. Good luck. liz
