@misssassy first they do testing to determine if your incontinence is the type that will be helped with Botox. If it is, they numb you and then do many shots. The procedure does carry with it a high risk of a UTI. My urogynecologist gave me five antibiotic pills to hopefully prevent one from happening. I did still get one, but it was easily treated.
The Botox did help, more during the day than at night for some reason. I have to drink a large amount of fluid to offset a medication I am on. It was 80-100 ounces a day so that of course really caused me to have to urinate a lot at night. Now I am down to 60-70 ounces, more doable and fewer nighttime bathroom visits.
