Description
For persons ages 18 and older with confirmed diabetes who ever had symptoms of a bladder infection that lasted more than 3 months, DIAPBSYN reports whether the person was told that he or she had painful bladder syndrome or interstitial cystitis.
This question is complementary to PBSYN, which was asked of sample adults who do not have confirmed diabetes who ever had symptoms of a bladder infection that lasted more than 3 months.
This variable is included in the 1989 Diabetes supplement. For related variables, please use the IPUMS NHIS search function and drop-down menus.
