I have had botox injections for overactive bladder twice in my life after many years of taking medications that did not work. It truly gave me my life back. I am in the process of looking for a urologist that will again do the injections. The urologist that I previously used moved away. In my experience, the injections last around 18 months. I would do these the rest of my life if I have to. It is better than taking medication that doesn't work or not having any type of life. It is degrading to tell your 7 year old son you can't take him swimming. I get teary-eyed just thinking about it. Insurance really needs to pay for this treatment. They pay for the use of botox for migraines why not overactive bladder which is an everyday occurrence?
