I am desperate to try a rescue instill! Does anyone know of a doc in Florida that does them????:hi::toilet:
hi melanie, dr gregory bailey, urogynecologist at the women's center, north florida regional med center, phone: 352-333-6161. listen, that is so far from where you live, have you gone on urogyn websites? or urology assn website for directory of all urologists and urogynecologists in your area? then start calling them up and ask: do you specialize in IC and do you give rescue instills? there must be one near you, i am sure of it. i live in ocala. i found dr. bailey just that way, on the internet and then i called. try it. you will definitely find one near you. they are not that rare. i have had i c for 3 years, it's been pretty bad. my urologist in ocala dr. mark dersch, is great, i have beeen getting dmso at his office, but it just doesnt work that great for me, so now this wk i had my first rescue instill with elmiron and lidocaine, the catheter is so tiny it looks like a cellophane noodle! the whole thing took maybe 2 minutes, the nurse was an expert, gentle and very nice, i am going back today for another treatment, not sure yet if it will work, but it doesnt hurt, didnt make me worse and is worth a try. good luck, i know you will find a good dr. near you, love, cyd in ocala
