Hello! Thanks for using healthcaremagic.com I read carefully your question and understand your concern. I think you may have Interstitial cystitis (IC). There is no studies that confirm ciprofloxacin is doing the side effects to the symptoms that you are describing. When patient come to my clinic is very common they present cystitis as a difficulty urine diseases. Interstitial cystitis (IC) is a chronic condition of the bladder that can cause pain and other symptoms. People with IC have inflamed or irritated bladder wall. Scientists have not yet found a cure for interstitial cystitis, nor are they able to predict who will perform better with each treatment. Symptoms may disappear for no reason, or when you change your diet or treatment. Even if the symptoms disappear, they may return days, weeks, months or years later. Scientists do not know why. As the causes of IQ are not known, the treatments aim at relieving the symptoms. Some of the treatments i do for my patients with IC symptoms are: Oral medications, including sodium pentosan polysulfate (Elmiron). Because it has not been tested in pregnant women, it is not recommended to use Elmiron during pregnancy except in severe cases. Some other oral medications are aspirin and ibuprofen, stronger analgesics, antidepressants, and antihistamines. Instillation of the bladder (lavage or bladder bath). During instillation of the bladder, it is filled with a solution that is maintained for varying periods of time before being drained. The only drug approved so far by the FDA for use in bladder instillation is dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO). Other drugs are being studied for this purpose. Self-help strategies such as bladder training, dietary changes, stress reduction, and low-impact exercises. Surgery, considered as the last treatment resource. Surgery does not necessarily improve the symptoms. Kind regards, Dr. Oscar Martinez
