Cystex or Uristat?
Saturday, November 1st, 2008
It appears that interstitial cystitis is going to be a part of my life so I'd like to get opinions on the best pain reliever. Azo is O.U.T. Didn't do squat for me. I've used Uristat in the past but just heard about Cystex.
Has anyone tried that product? Did it offer decent pain relief? Is Uristat a better choice for any reason?
FWIW, I don't wear contacts so discoloration isn't an issue. IC is like a UTI symptom-wise but there is no infection. I tend to have symptoms around my period although not always bad enough to warrant needing pain meds.
Pray tell me have you tried taking two capsules of evening primrose oil a day? I take this prescribed by my Consultant:

For my Arthritis, Psoriasis and I found it exceptional for my PMS and regulating my periods. Therefore I strongly suggest you try it but you have to be it everyday for at least six months before you know if it is working. Best of Luck
