Description
For sample persons ages 18 and older who do not have confirmed diabetes and who ever had symptoms of a bladder infection that lasted more than 3 months, PBSYN reports whether the person was told that he or she had painful bladder syndrome or interstitial cystitis.
This question is complementary to DIAPBSYN, which was asked of adults who have confirmed diabetes and ever had symptoms of a bladder infection that lasted more than 3 months.
