I cured my h pylori in 2015 and was left with chronic gastritis. I've managed it. But now i have bladder issues. Intercystial cystitis symptoms. No infectious cause found. Can h pylori possibly colonize in the bladder? I refuse to believe i have IC, as i have never had any bladder issues until december. Antibiotics calm symptoms down but not 100%

i dont think HP can cause IC. otherwise, half the world population will be suffering from IC.

The cause of IC is unknown for now. We are doing some microbiota analysis at the moment. Hopefully we can identify a pathogen associate to IC.

From my understanding, H. pylori do not colonise in the bladder. However, because H. pylori causes systematic inflammation. Can the inflammatory factors affect other organs, such as bladder and causes bladder problem? maybe. Even if it does, it'll be very rare. After all, more than half the population in the world is infected. Not everyone has bladder problem.
