Recurred Hematuria And Cystitis After Completion Of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy. History Of Pelvic Radiation. Any Other Options?
I had pelvic radiation 2 years ago and am now suffering from hematuria and cystitis. I have just completed 6 weeks of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy and initially thought I was responding very well as my symptoms had disappeared but now, 3 weeks after HBOT treatment finished the symptoms are back. Are there any other options for me now?

Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Definitely you received treatment for pelvic radiation ( Hyperbaric oxygen therapy).
Now in spite if this therapy there is hematuria and cysitis .
Only option is to assess the the root cause of hematuria other then cystitis .
Consult an Urologist and get his opinion ( 2nd ).
May be due to involvement of urinary tract system .
Good luck.
