I don't know where else to post this, but I know, as someone who suffers from this, that information on interstitial cystitis is really hard to find. But it's a horrible thing to live with so I'm going to post my home remedy.
When I first feel it coming on, I take tylenol. Quite a bit of tylenol. And put about two or three teaspoons of baking soda into a bottle of water and CHUG it. I do this IMMEDIATELY when I feel a flare up coming on. If you catch it early, it'll reduce the duration.
Keep taking quite a bit of tylenol throughout the whole duration of the flare up, and try to drink at least half a water bottle of baking soda water a day. A whole one, if you can. Do this everyday. When you stop feeling the inflammation, do it for three more days after you've stopped feeling symptoms. You should be better in about 10 to 16 days, depending on how strict you are with it. And while you're having the flare up, it'll only irritate you when you go to urinate. It'll be irritating for about 10 seconds and then you will be fine.
