I am scheduled to do the phase I of the interstim process next wednesday (11/19). I just wanted to get some input from others. My doctor assures me that this is for pain too. I read many posts from here and elsewhere that say otherwise. What is your opinion? I had the hydro and distention done about a month ago. Tried Elmiron with massive side effects beginning with the first pill. Tried them without the capsule as well. Still had horrible migraines. Couldn't manage with 3 kids and no hubby around most days. Is it typical to go right to the interstim? My uro thinks this is the best route next. I do have the urgency/frequency issues as well. Pain is my primary symptom, though. Do you think I should go ahead and start the process or maybe get a second opinion? Thanks so much for taking the time to read and respond. I am still so new to this horrible IC world. Very thankful for you all though. I read the site boards daily. Thanks.
