Has anyone else experienced chronic bladder infections but with no symptoms?

I had symptoms in my 20's so I starting drinking a lot of cranberry juice and taking acidophilus- helped a lot. Along the years I changed my eating habits, learned more and ate gluten-free/CF/ low sugar. Now though, my blood tests have been coming back high. Although I will see a Urologist soon- I am more concerned with the cause and effective treatment. In December I was given Macrobid but to no avail...

Where's the hope and healing? One more diagnosis... :(

:D Hmmm, I have Interstial Cystitis but that is the symptoms but no infection. I have burning pain but when urine is cultured there is no infection and they looked in the bladder and saw the damage of Interstitial Cystitis. Now I take meds for it and it is kept under control. But you have no symptoms so it sounds like you have the opposite. Just thought I would share this to see if it helps or bring out more discussion about this for you. Good luck!

I have chronic bladder infections, and I rarely have symptoms. They don't treat it unless I get really sick, which at that point it has usually become a kidney infection, and the only symptoms I get are extremely painful kidney spasms, and fever. I rarely have any burning sensation.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!

      Welcome @Martha Mitchell, I too would like to know more about your prior lenses, and especially about the potential of gluten in lenses. In theory this should not harm most celiacs, as the autoimmune reaction normally begins in the gut, however, in those who are super sensitive or have dermatitis herpetiformis it may be a potential issue.

      It's most likely going to be a celiac disease diagnosis based on your blood test results, but wait for your doctor to give you a green light for going gluten-free, as they may want to do additional testing. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
