Good evening @mkb53. Thanks for your post about medical cannabis and OAB. Actually, I have been using medical cannabis for pain and discomfort from my SMF (small fiber neuropathy) for several years. I do have stress incontinence and yet I don't quite know what CBD is able to do with or without THC. I do use a medication called Mixbetriq which I take at bedtime. It holds everything till morning so I get a good night's sleep.
And next Thursday I will have a bladder sling surgery which, (fingers crossed) I hope will resolve the issue pretty completely.

How long have you been dealing with OAB?

May you be content and at ease.
Chris

Thank you for your response, Chris. OAB has been occurring for several years. The last three have been more challenging. I’m doing PT and realize it will be an ongoing in helping me to regain control. In the meantime, it’s important to do one part of PT at a time and to not add additional treatments as it will not help one determine what is working and what is not. So monitoring it day by day or month by month.
In the meantime I am researching medical marijuana as another option but do not want to get hasty and look for a quick fix. How long have you been taking your medication
and have you experienced side any side effects? I am sensitive to many medications.
Best wishes for a successful surgery, Chris!
Mary
