Hi doctor, My sister is 20 years old. She has a problem of frequent urination. She has to urinate numerous times. She has undergone cystoscopy and urodynamics test. She has a small and weak bladder with 350 mL capacity. But, the reason behind frequent urination has to be diagnosed still. The doctor has a doubt of IC that is, interstitial cystitis. She is taking Cystopen thrice a day and Cranpac-D once a day for two months. But, there is no significant relief. I want to know whether the treatment is right.
Hi. I understand your concern. I went through your sister's reports (attachment removed to protect patient identity). Urine culture and blood sugar levels. 1. Bladder pain syndrome (interstitial cystitis). 2. Detrusor muscle weakness. To prevent flares of disease, ask her to avoid foods and drinks that make symptoms worse, avoid activities that make symptoms worse and get treated quickly for bladder infections.
