It was terribly painful for a month after, then I had a 4 month relief - no symptoms and then BAM. It all came screaming back. Totally not worth it.

was okay very sore after but was worth a shot
It helped to reduce pain but not discomfort/frequency

It was okay. Nothing major happened and I had no pain after.

First one worked WONDERS. Second one, did not help as much. Due to my other problems.
The only side effect was blood in my urine after, and the pain. other wise it is great!

Painful
I have had these about every 6 months. The last one I had though didnt seem to really help I felt more uncomfortable after surgery then before
Worked short term but returned within a month with flare up just as bad.
The bladder distention worked for
about a month...will not do it again. It did not last.
