How Can An Enlarged Bladder Be Treated?
I have a stretched bladder, and carry around quite an excess of fluid. My urologist tells me the only way to to help alleviate is to cath, which is difficult at best. Only after I've kept records of cathing for two months or so will insurance cover an interstim implant. Is there anything else I can do to "retrain" my bladder so I can empty it?
