A quick update…

Rob R . Evening Nigel. Sorry to hear you are still having ups and downs. Not any great advice for you. Just wishing you have a good night. Best wishes.

Hi Rob,

I have allergies so the way I was taught was to eliminate the possible  things that could be irritating your body 1 at a time. If you are lucky that will show quickly what to avoid.

In your case, unless you are drinking the shower gel, that would be irritating the skin plus the end of the penis. The lemon barley water would probably feel bad inside your bladder and on the way out. I use Simple shower and other products - no perfume and fewer chemicals.

Not sure about walnuts, probably same as the barley water. I know people are allergic to walnuts, but I would have thought they would show up in itchy throat, runny nose or hives, itchy skin or general feeling of discomfort.

Have a look at the barley water ingredients, there are probably lots of chemicals in it which can affect one. Maybe cold water would be better.

But try one at a time or you'll never be sure.

All the best,

Latestart

Cheers Latestart…zero sleep last night, up to pee every hour…it’s getting better today, 

I wouldn’t drink the shower gel if I were you. Lemon Barley and walnuts  should be fine. Stay well

You left out the long walk in your list...  oh, and the temperature of the shower. Not sure why either of those might be relevant, but you probably need to consider every possibility. Also maybe something from earlier on that takes time to filter through?

The thought had crossed my mind Garviv, I’ve had the lemon barley water today, it’s getting easier…it was defo the shower gel…I must be a very sensitive soul…hahaha…

even with all this it’s still much better than BCG #13-15  so I shouldn’t complain to much…

it’s the lack of sleep that does me…

cheers Nigel xx 

Can't offer any advice as what you're doing sounds like the best option.

It does take a while to figure things out, took me a while to work out that orange juice killed my bladder....

Hope you find answers soon.

Cheers Trevor mate, im sitting here in my buggies watching the darts…im sitting on a heat wrap as my piles are playing up..hahahah to much? 

Oh dear mate, sounds like it's all happening for you.... 

I used to suffer from piles, but changed my diet etc and been good for a while.

Piles rules... Number one... Never strain...

Basically that's it.. it's the pushing straining that causes piles,. Do whatever you need not to strain... Prunes, fiber, avoiding white bread etc etc..

Enjoy the darts matey 

I’ve been straining loads, trying to push the pee out…it rough but I’ll get there…
