So my new dr has run lots of tests and he does not think I have ic. He thinks I may benefit from urethral dilation and is doing his own cystoscopy to determine what is going on. I had an MRI that said I have slight urethral thickening and bladder looks normal.
I started the IC diet the same time I started Myrbetriq. I've had a good 3 months bladder wise with symptoms greatly reduced. Unfortunately the myrbetriq is now not agreeing with me. Hopefully once I stop, these horrid side effects will leave and I'll find that it's the diet that has helped. Or if it is just my urethra than would the diet help that?
My question is would this urethral thickening be the cause of my symptoms? Would dilating it rid me of this? Is it safe?
I see him in a couple of weeks and it's all just weighing on my mind.
Thanks.
