overactive bladde
"I had Botox for overactive bladder six weeks ago and it's been nothing more than a nightmare for me.  My main issues were frequency and bladder spasms and the Botox has only worsened these issues.  I initially experienced a great deal of bleeding with large clots for 12 hours which I was unaware could occur - only slight spotting had been mentioned.  Within a week I could no longer urinate and a Foley catheter was inserted.  Six weeks on, my bladder remains seized and despite a number of attempts to remove the catheter, my bladder hasn't improved. I have had two uti's and been admitted to the emergency dept for severe bladder trauma, urine retention and uti.  I have suffered extreme anxiety as a result of all of this. It's not for everyone!"
