A member asked:
I have interstitial cystitis. i've taken the antibiotic but i have discovered visible blood in my urine and i also have severe pain urinating help?

Antibiotics: Don't treat ic. A cystoscopy should be performed, follow an ic diet and stop smoking. A bladder infection should be ruled out but if one is suspected you should have cultures done to be sure.
