I asked my physiatrist if he had ever heard of it, he had not. I explained it to him. Told him about the studies that were done and why the FDA approved it. He was blown away when he looked it up and confirmed everything that I told him about. I told him that I spend a lot of my time researching, because I am determined to get my life back.
He thinks it is worth a try, especially because the cost is around $300. I pay $100 a month for one of my migraine meds, Axert, so it's worth a shot. There is a 60 day money back guarantee. My physiatrist said that migraines are so complex that my bladder issues could all be migraine related. Our visit was so positive. He actually listened to my husband and I. He said that he is always willing to listen to his patients because doctors tend to get set in their ways and are not open to trying new treatments. I think he took me serious because I knew my stuff and I was being my own advocate.
I've got nothing to lose, so I look forward to trying it out. I have to send the prescription in and they plan on sending them out the first week of April. No nasty chemicals going into my body and supposedly no side-effects. Let's go for it!
I also ordered my cane today. It is an actual zebra sitting on a stick. It comes from Africa Art. It is pretty cool looking. I think if I have to use a cane, I might as well get one that makes me smile and I'm sure it will make others smile too, when they see it. I think the image alone of me walking around with Wonder Woman head band on my fore head and zebra walking stick is enough to bring a smile to anyone's face.
