anyone got this,if so how do you cope with the burning pain?

Not sure what the intersistial means, but generally with cystitis cranberry juice is very good and lots of water...hope this helps!

I hope by now you are getting less pain.
What I used to do when I was absolutely desperate was to run a very shallow bath, enough just to sit in, and 'go'. As you can imagine you have to be desperate to go to this trouble, but oh the relief!. As others have said drink loads and loads of water, a scary thing to do I know, but it will help.
