The patient was a 46-year-old man. His chief complaints were urinary frequency and pain on urination. They first appeared one year earlier. The patient had had a history of bronchial asthma and urticaria. Vesical capacity decreased and vesico-cutaneous developed. The urine sediment contained eosinophils and vesico ureteral reflux was observed. The bladder tissues contained a moderate amount of eosinophils, lymphocytes and plasma cells. The total IgE was 360 IU/ml. The IgE RAST score and immediate reaction to the skin tests were all negative. The Arthus and delayed-type reaction skin tests were positive to various Eumycetees and foods. Provocation tests by eating foods such as eggs, meats, and shellfish reproduced the above-mentioned bladder disorders. The patient was therefore put on a diet that restricted the amount of animal protein consumed except for white meat fishes, and a mast cell membrane stabilizer was administered. The interstitial cystitis improved but the asthma aggravated. The cystitis was found to develop alternately with asthma.
