helps alot
I had this done the first time along with DMSO, the combination put me in remission for ten years.
i have had this done every 6 mo. for the last 5 yrs.

I do get some relief from the overdistention. Usually about 3 - 6 months
NO
I had this done when I had my hysterectomy because my left side was hurting and removed my ovary. Come to find out that my pain was coming from my low pelvic floor muscle tone. My pelvic floor is always in spasm. And that is my pain along with my IC.
Too recent to tell yet.My bladder is sore due to the biopsey.
Working / Worked
Didn't work, I was too sore and in too much pain to tell. It seemed to make it worse, but it helped my dr. to figure out what was wrong.
