Re: Nerve Stimulation Technique for Bladder Symptoms
Hi! besides PTNS maybe u could also try kegel exercise to build up the strength of your pelvic muscles floor, n scheduling your water consumption so within every hour u would have the same amount of water intake. It can be used to train your bladder to urinate at the time it supposed to be. I guess ...

God made our bodies so we can cure the disease we have if we listen to what he has told us. Yes, true we have to listen to HIM, we should ask HIM what to do, not just listening to our body with our own strength. How do you think we cure disease? It would be very sad if there was no hope. Yes, HOPE ...
