I recall a number of references to interstitial cystitis on Phoenix Rising, and it seems to be fairly common in people with ME/CFS. I read just this morning the section below on bladder infections from the book The Ozone Miracle, by Frank Shallenberger, M.D. (copyright 2017).
In the book, the author talks about how a person can set up their own system of ozone treatment at home, but there are also easier options to purchase things like ozonated olive oil capsules that a person can take internally to get started. I plan to order some today (more for gut health than for IC).
Here's what he had to say about bladder infections, with a focus on interstitial cystitis:
Bladder Infections
Bladder infections are usually best treated with antibiotics. If they are resistant, the bladder insufflation technique can be used in addition. But the most incredible use of the ozone bladder insufflation technique is for a very severe bladder disorder known as interstitial cystitis (IC). In 2015 I presented a study to the Cuban Ozone Therapy Society of 18 patents with severe and long standing IC that had not responded to any form of therapy.
Of this very difficult group 55% were completely cured and 30% were substantially improved after only three weeks of ozone therapy. However, because it is such a sifficult and painful problem, patients with IC should only treat themselves while under the supervision of a practitioner trained in treating this dosorder. You can find doctors trained in ozone therapy at www.aaot.us. -- (American Academy of Ozonotherapy)
