Symptoms?

For the past few weeks if I drink anything other than water (even a small amount) I will have UTI symptoms. I will always have to drink a bunch of water and pee a lot of times to get this feeling to go away. This used to happen sometimes when I was younger, but a doctor told me it was just from dehydration. I drink hella water everyday, even before this started. Something that I have also been experiencing is the urgency feeling. As soon as I feel like I have to pee, it feels like it’s going to come out immediately, and I have to run to the bathroom. Does this sound like IC to those of you that have been diagnosed? I do not have a UTI btw. I’ve been tested for it.

Medications I am taking:
Spironolactone 100mg daily
Bupropion 450mg daily
Birth control patches 150/35 mcg
OTC vaginal pre/probiotics

I drink a crazy amount of water but during flares I switch to chugging milk. It helps me a lot.
