Great details - thank you - Sol - I get the feeling cold would also trigger spasms - are you short on Magnesium (without added Calcium) or copper (the two main minerals related to spasm.) I would be interested in your topping up with a Magnesium suplement for a few days (one without Calcium) and then having another try - one lemon in 500mL water is quite sour - have you tried a weaker mix? Do you get the same response as with OJ if you eat an orange? Do you have a known bladder problem?

Thanks Jane.
Room temp or cold water, juice of 1 lemon in about a pint of water (estimate) with maple syrup. Or a little OJ, like 4 oz, cold. I have had the bladder spasms/cramps and ache and pain a couple other times this year, but didn't connect it to citrus until recently.

To strengthen the bladder condition you rub firmly across the top of the symphysis pubis from hip to hip, (the central bone at the base of the abdomen) if you find any sore spots you concentrate on that area, this helps strengthen the bladder but it also indicates if there's a problem.
Thanks, I'll try that.

Do you take Cranberry capsules? Remember they strengthen the bladder walls and make them more resistent to infection.
I have had skin reactions (urticaria, pruritis, start of hives) from cranberry, so I don't use it.

I researched and read that citrus is a definite trigger for bladder spasms in some people. But I can't find what the actual mechansim is for citrus being a trigger of the spasms. I can manage it when it happens, but still would like to know..........
