I have had this with Hydrodestention, urodyanimics and cystoscopy several times, it helps for a few weeks, then back to the usual.My bladder is now down to holding only 5.5 oz. and still have bladder spasms regularly. Stress is the main thing that brings on the spasms. Now I'm waiting for a magic cure-all pill!
