I swear by this stuff it is incredible for cystitis and also bladder infections. Its just a powdered sugar and you mix it with water. For me it works within hours - relief from toe curling visits to the toilet!!! You should really go to the docs if it gets bad but try this stuff if you prefer the natural approach.

 Dont know if this will help!
I used to suffer terrible from cystitis and thrush, cranberry juice just used to make it worse (aparantly in some people it can make it worse). I was told by my doctor to always drink plenty of plain water, and drink one of those tiny Pro-biotic yogurt drinks every morning, and I haven't had either of them since.
So find out what works for you and then stick to it, because once you have had it its easy to get it back.
Oh! and white wine is not good either.
Take care XX

Its gonna be an uncomfortable day, and I will have to find ways to keep nipping off! Im managing to get it down to once an hour now, but I will have to make the best of it. Ive only had the job 3 weeks, and having a day off is not an option.
