I suffer from UIC since round about 3 years. For me it started with a UTI that was virus based. It tooks a pretty long time and a couple of weeks in a hospital to cure it out, but after the infection was gone my allready smal bladder had shrinked even more and the urologist had the suspect, that my inner bladder nerves had become dameged. At this time I had nearly no control over my bladder anymore and was treaded with Tolterodin first, later with Emselex.
After a year and intensiv bladder training the capacity was expanded to round about 300ml again and I was able to make it mostly to the toilet over the daytime. For the nighttime the techniqes that I’d learned did’t worked that well. This was also the time where I set down the medication because there where no improvments any more and the side effects where havy.
Today I still have my problems and if a urge realy hit’s me and if my bladder cramps I still have no chance to hold it, but with timed voiding and some diet (no coffe no orange juce no spicy food) I’m meanwhile able to make it over the daytime mostly without accidents.
I leared also that this seems to be a pretty rare medical history - especialy for male, and I still have no clue what had caused the infection. How ever I’m interrested to learn if maybe others had similar experiences and what helped in there cases.
