Bladder pain
I have Interstitial Cystitis which seems to get inflamed on this diet. MCT oils also seem to exasperate my bladder. Anyone else have bladder sensitivity on this diet?

It’s possible that your bladder issues could be being exacerbated by dehydration. This often happens when people first start into ketosis. The sudden weight loss that often comes with the switch to ketones as a primary fuel is often “water weight” loss which is not a problem as long as you stay hydrated and keep an eye on your electrolyte balance. Along with the water weight, a lot of your potassium, magnesium, and sodium get “flushed out” literally. Your bladder issues may be affected by this electrolyte loss and dehydration in general.
