Make up a quart or so of water with a couple tablespoons of baking soda- avoid any acidic drinks or food- drink as much of this solution as you can. My Dr. said to drink a gallon, but that's hard to do. ( Don't drink too fast because it can form a giant gas bubble in your stomach-like pop/soda and you'll get a belly ache---till you burp.) I feel for You! It decreases the acidity of your urine and that can soothe the tissues.
I found three great websites for you. They may be helpful. Sounds like diet is a big factor, too. Not much hope for a quick fix tonight. I'll keep you in my prayers though - Good Luck!
