Hello,
I’ve been dealing with ongoing bladder and vaginal issues since last summer. It all started with a UTI, and I ended up taking about five courses of antibiotics. After that, I developed what was likely a yeast infection, and my vaginal pH was 6.0.
Since then, I’ve had persistent symptoms. Either my bladder burns or aches, I constantly feel aware of it, or I have vaginal discomfort. After having a bowel movement, I often have to urinate several times because it feels like my bladder isn’t empty.
The strange part is that my symptoms come in waves. Sometimes they suddenly improve, then a few days later they’re back. On some days my bladder feels extremely full even though I’ve barely had anything to drink. When I do go to the bathroom, my bladder actually is full.
I’ve been taking Spasmex for about three months, but I honestly feel like it only helps a little. At the same time, I can’t seem to manage without medication either.
I’ve also tried countless supplements including D Mannose, cranberry, slippery elm bark, marshmallow root, and several others. Some of them seem to help for a while, but then the symptoms always come back.
I’ve been dealing with this for almost a year now. Has anyone experienced something similar or figured out what was causing it?
