Have had it for over a week. It's not cystitis becuse it's Ok when I pass water...but right at the end it hurts ( but doesn't sting) Is worse at night and makes me get up at least twice to go to the loo. I haven't had time to go to the Gp, and if I do I guess it'll just be a dose of antibiotics.

Has anyone got any advice to get rid of this annoying thing? BTW I hve been drinking loads more water.

Huge thanks

I did start to take one of the over the counter remedies for cystitis - but as it makes the whole area more alkaline - I then felt symptoms of thrush coming on - you just can;t win!!

You can get cranberry tablets - they are great

Drink, drink, drink. The more you go to the loo the weaker the irritation will get.
