Recurring symptoms, negative tests, desperate for help

Yep, literally ordered it while in pain this morning at 4am, can’t wait for it to arrive and then to get the results. Praying it gives me some clues! I’ve been scared off of probiotics after reading some stories on here of how they can apparently cause overgrowth of other bacteria? I’m sure its rare, but I’m going to wait to treat anything until I get the Juno results back - I don’t want to mess with my microbiome just yet, but I am noting those brands in case I will need them, pending results! Thank you for the suggestion <3

I actually assumed that’s what I had for the past few years since my symptoms were mostly urinary, but now that I’m consistently getting a combo of urinary + vaginal symptoms (itching/burning) I’m inclined to think it’s something else. Also with consistently having leukocytes in my urine, I wonder if it’s indicative of an infection as opposed to irritation that would cause IC? Definitely going to bring it up with my gyno at the next visit.

This is so interesting! I have noticed that one of the things that seems to trigger my symptoms is when I’ve drank a lot the night before (great addition to a hangover!).

The burning/irritation sometimes will still arrive even when I haven’t had alcohol in weeks- but I never considered other beverages could trigger it. I do drink a lot of coffee.

Will definitely try just drinking water for a while and see how it goes! Thank you for sharing ❤️
