I have looked at Wal-Mart and Ingles with no luck. The IC Shop only has pear juice. Where can I purchase 100% Blueberry Juice from and what is the best brand?

Trader Joe's sells 100% Blueberry juice.

currently taking Elmiron 100mg 3x daily
currently taking Klonipin 1mg as needed for nerves and stress
currently taking Ditropan XL 10mg (Oxbutynin ER) once a day for ugency and frequency.
trying Aloe Vera Juice just a little mixed with water
I am on my 3rd uro. The 1st I went to cause of an UTI it was clear in the culture by the next month, but I was still having issues so he continued me on macordantin (sp.) and urised for about a year and I just seemed to get worse. My 2nd uro said he thought I had an OAB and tried me on meds for that. Everytime I went to him he would dialate my uretha and he also did a hydro (streched my bladder) and supposely removed scar tissue from my bladder and urethea and said my bladder was inflammed. But he said I didn't have enought pain to have IC. I tried many OAB meds and nothing seems to help I was in the bathroom atleast once an hour if not more. I suffered for a while. Now I am on my 3rd uro. The 1st visit we talked and he instantly said I had IC. He checked me and did an ultrasound of my bladder and order a cat scan and put me on Elmiron. I am currently waiting for the results of the cat scan.
A little about me that doesn't have to do with this is I am a stay at home mother of two kids and I have a very loving and supportive husband.

Blueberry Juice
Where I live we don't have the big name health food stores but all health food stores here carry blueberry juice. Look for the name Knutson-Just Blueberry Juice. It is bottled and concentrated, unsweetened. I really have grown to like it and have mixed it iced and hot as a tea diluted with water.
I have read where some have made it into an icy.Comment

Thanks girls, I will keep looking. We don't have many health food places around here either. But I'm not going to give up.

If you can't find any, you could buy some blueberries, either fresh or frozen --- add some water and cook them. Strain out the pulp and add the juice that's left to water and sweeten to taste.

Blueberry Juice
Hi,
I also get mine at Trader Joe's, but they sell a brand at Whole Foods as well. You can also order it on line, but its a little pricey that way.
I love my blueberry juice mixed with a little pear juice. I also use it as a salad dressing!
Good luck,
Kari God grant me the Serenity to get through each day and get home to my fur babies and my loving husband.

You could always buy a juicer. That way you'll never have to go on the hunt for any type of juice. Take out juicer, insert fruit/vegetables, juice, voila'.
Love my JL juicer!

When I make blueberry juice, I just cook the berries and strain to remove the seeds and pulp and sweeten to taste.
