Uncomfortable and struggling with my bladder

Hi I am really struggling with my bladder, I am on overactive bladder tablets x 2 types and having acupuncture but it still not good.

Been referred to consultant who will be looking into my bladder to see if there is damage or it's just overactive.

I wondered if any one had had bladder instillations as this has been suggested if the bladder has been damaged.

 

  • I'm sorry to hear about your struggles with your bladder Emiliejo.

    This must be very difficult to live with but hopefully the consultant who will be looking in to this will be able to provide you with some answers and ideas on how to make this more manageable.

    I'm sure some of our members who have experienced similar issues will share their experiences and advice with you soon but if you'd like to talk any of this through with one of our cancer nurses, you can contact them on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m. They're very insightful and will do all they can to help you at this time.

    Kind regards,
