My GI doctor gave me information about Interstim or Axonics Therapy to read. Looks like a wire of a stimulator is inserted near the sacral nerve. I'm unsure of doing this. Any thoughts?
Hello @shirl48 and welcome to Mayo Connect. Yes, I've heard about the device you mentioned, and it is supposed to be helpful for bladder and bowel issues.
How long have you been troubled with these problems? Is there anything else that you have tried?
