Hi Dee, Being a diabetic, i am so prone to UTI/Cystitis. The last attack i had was horrible with so much pain and blood in the urine and had to go every two-three minutes. That was almost two years ago.
I treated by drinking EIS with DMSO. One ounce with one ml of DMSO every 25 minutes. Then i would drink chilled water to remove the heat/burning pain at the bladder area. In four hours time it suddenly stopped and i had clear urine. I have since then not experienced the slightest symptoms of this ailment. I am not a physician. This is what i did, it worked for me, and might not work for others. Take care, Melly
