My uro switched me from ditropan to enablex because the ditropan was giving me chest pains. I now have chest pains from ditropan withdrawl, throwing up acid from chest pains, and flaring up from enablex. I'm not taking anything until monday. Miserable and pain everywhere. I hate this disease right now. The pain has literally brought me to my knees and made me cry. Quality of life, what life?

Our Father, who art in heaven,
Hallowed be thy Name.
Thy kingdom come.
Thy will be done,
On earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
As we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
But deliver us from evil.
[For thine is the kingdom,
and the power, and the glory,
for ever and ever.]
Amen.
