Sacral nerve stimulation?

[tsal]

Ive been waiting for an appointment for about 4months now to see a specialist so i rang the other day to see if they had any idea when it could be and the receptionist said that they have been waiting for a reply from my area for funding for Sacral nerve stimualtion, i have googled it etc, but it would be really helpful if anyone here had any personal experiance with it?
Thanks

Hi,

I tried sacral nerve stimulation three times , and pudendal nerve stimulation once for my bladder. I have a neurogenic bladder
and was trying this treatment, for urine retention and leaking large amounts of urine. It only worked once for 5 days. I had the very best US Uro put mine in. And I have heard of MANY people where this procedure and treatment IMPROVED THERE LIFE

I would certainly TRY this procedure. GO FOR THE GOLD.
It is very important when you have bladder or bowel issues that you TRY EVERYTHING :

Let us know what you decide.
Take care, Sally
