Hair dyes

Forums: 

Has anyone use Logona hair dye products?

Also any info on the brand of henna used for gray hair would be helpful.

Not able to use the Tints of Nature I have been using (I think the peroxide is bothering me.  Dr. B approved this but for some reason I am reacting to it now and its makes flare for a few days.  

Thanks for any info.

Cranberry and sex?

Forums: 

Hey ladies!
Dr.B recommended goldenseal after sex if I do have it, and my bladder does NOT tolerate it at all in general so I asked her if I could try cranberry pills JUST for after sex and she okayed to try it for JUST after sex.

I was finally feeling okay enough to do so and try it but my bladder is (surprise) inflamed and I'm pretty sure it's from the pills.
What is it about the cranberry that makes it so terrible for us,  the Vitamin C? Or is it sugar from cranberry?  It says it has literally just ONE gram of sugars from the cran/d-mannose

Wow!

This treatment is really something. People have been telling me that no matter what you have been dealt, there is always more that you can lose.

 

It is tempting not to post about this but I have always posted about everything from the beginning and so I suppose I am not going to stop now.

List 3 Chicken Paprika in Yogurt Sauce

Forums: 

I know I should post on the new Facebook page, but i am not too Facebook savvy yet and will join eventually.

I use chicken thighs as they tend to not dry out. (I am rarely a chicken breast fan) but you can use any chicken pieces....) I also use Fage full-fat yogurt (any full-fat Greek yogurt) so you don't have to do the yogurt straining step...I also use a little extra butter during the simmering with water part.

Enjoy!

Need reassurance about Bifido tolerance ("Old-timers" would lOVE to hear from you)

Forums: 

Hi all

Feeling a bit discouraged. Was on bifido for 1 month. This week I had bad bladder burning and frequency and suddenly couldn't tolerate it. Dr. B actually wanted me to INCREASE my dose, which I understand, as I have had many good hours on the Bif this month. So I tried to increase it yesterday but too much pain. She told me to take it out for three days and try again. 

Salt

Forums: 

Does anyone flare with salt?

 I feel like there is a big connection between salt and my bladder pain.  What's funny is that I usually crave salt  and used to eat it like an insane person and it was fine with me, but recently  I swear it is painful no matter what kind I use...

...I know that one of the tests of IC is to see if the bladder flares after a potassium installation and that salt has a lot of  potassium, but why then is salt usually okay for everyone?

Getting back from 2 day trip to desert with hubby. He is a saint. This was our first trip using a wheelchair. Trying to put that in perspective.

Have become very anxious about this. Having to use some Western meds to get some sleep.

 

knee phenomenon is like the bladder in the early days. Stuck! Boy this is hard. I know we are all alone but it would help to hear from you guys.

 

love, Bonnie
