can thrush cause cystitis?

[Yorkiegirl]

can it?

anyone?

I think cystitus can cause thrush, not sure about the other way round though.

this is not comfortable. Will not be impressed if it is cystitis!

The symptoms can be very similar.

Antibiotics given to clear cystitis can cause thrush.

symptoms for thrush and cystitis are very similar.

am getting real burning when I wee. Have taken capsule for thrush today. The antibiotics I was on last week set it off. I don't usually get the burning sensation with thrush

Does sound like cystitis. (You have my sympathies if it is..) Sip water for as long as you can to try and flush it out. Also, bicarb of soda in water will help dilute the acidity.

will have to wait and see if it progresses really
thanks tho

Poor you, it does sound like cystitis. I know it is hard, but do drink, and cranberry juice is good, but I expect you know that.
Hope it gets better.

Yorkiegirl, really sympathise as have had cystitis a lot, but not thrush.

Burning sounds like cystitis to me.

You can try and alleviate it at home by drinking gallons of water, and making sure that when you pee you squeeze out every drop (sorry if TMI), but apparently it can be caused by stagnant urine which collects in your bladder.

Cranberry (or vit c) tablets also may help. However please don't delay in going to doc and getting antibiotics if necessary, as it can spread to kidneys.

I always got it from sex, so would recommend washing before and after sex, weeing straight after sex, and not having sex more than once a day.

Sorry to rant but I know how awful and painful it is and want to pass on some tips to stop you getting it again!

cranberry juice and lots of water worked for me. Not sure if it can cause it.
