Anybody try Elmiron & "Bladder Control"

[Neal]

Anybody out there try taking Elmiron & "Bladder control" by the Natural Bladder?
Prior to being diagnosed with IC, I was taking Bladder control and it was really helping reduce my frequency.
Since being diagnosed, I've been on Elmiron. I feels it's helping, I don't have as sharp of pain when I'm holding it (I've also been sleeping alot better), but I still have the frequency.
Hoping to start taking the "BC" to help reduce the frequency.
Curious if anybody has done this and knows of any side effects/problems????

What is bladder control in your question? I know of bladder discipline....which can cause pain if you go overboard ....so does have a negative side .....should probably be done under doctors advise. I don't know a drug called bladder control.....enlighten me.

Bladder Control is an herbal supplement by the Natural bladder company. I've been using it for almost two years and have good results from it. Wanted to get some feedback before I try taking it with my Elmiron.

I suggest you take the container to your doctor at your next visit and ask if it would be okay to take it along with elmiron.

I asked my doctor, and he was pretty straight forward. He said he didin't know. He didn't encourage me to do it, but recommended I seriously research it prior to doing anything. He recommended I contact the folks at "Natural Bladder" to see what they said.
I was hoping to see if anyone out there on the board had tried it...
