Stacy,
The procedure that they are talking about is called Bladder
Augmentation. One of my numerous urologists told me about the procedure. I
am now going to a different urologist, and he told me that it was a crazy
idea because my bladder has normal capacity, but is very spastic. I don't
know if your urologist has ran a uroanalysis( I think that is what it is
called), which measures how much fluid your bladder holds, and finds out how
spastic your bladder is. That is the test that determined I shouldn't have
the procedure. I don't want to discourage you from it if it will work, but
the doctor told me things involved with the procedure and I wasn't going to
do it, because I'm still young. I hope this information has helped you.
