Hi all, do any of you use Jude, the supplement to help with bladder control?
I could ask my CNS. Just recently been peeing too many times at night and you never get a good night's sleep.
I have now had 24 Bcg treatments so this must take its toll on the bladder, cannot wait to finish all 27 this October, been a long time. Still if its doing the job will finish the three year course, through gritted teeth.
Hi BB,
I saw my consultant yesterday and I actually remembered to ask about Jude.
Unfortunately he wasn't familiar with Jude. Sorry after all that I've come up blank. Although I'm amazed I remembered.
Have you tried it yet? Just wondering if it's helped.
I've been prescribed some more tablets, but the last lot did nothing so I don't think I'll bother.
Hope you are well.
Take care.

Hello Bumblebee 49, I know exactly what you are experiencing. I have had 15 BCG instillations and following my last flexible cystoscopy (February 25) I asked the Doctor his advice. He suggested I go to my GP. Being a man of course I ignored this until a couple of weeks ago. My GP prescribed Solifenacin 5 mg tablets. What a difference! I rarely get up more than once now during the night. Stay well.

Wow that's interesting Garviv, will take note. I always worry about side effects? It is starting to ease off a bit but that's really good to know, thank you.
