Hello
Thanks for your query,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have urinary symptoms due to Over Active Bladder Syndrome since many years and have no satisfactory results with multiple trials of medications.
You are thinking about Inter-stem therapy as a treatment option. This therapy has been approved by WHO for treating symptoms due to Over Active Bladder and has been found effective in 70% of patients.,
Please get proper evaluation of its feasibility and whether it will work for you done before going for it .
