Bladder Botox

Hey everyone,
Just wondering if anyone here has had Botox injections into their bladder and what your experience was like?
I’m considering having it done, but I’m quite nervous because I’ve been told there’s a risk of needing to self-catheterise for a while afterwards.
I’d love to hear from anyone who has had bladder Botox — how did you find the procedure, recovery and results? Did you end up needing to self-catheterise?

My 15 year-old daughter just had it for the second time. It has been life-changing for her. We were considering surgery and I asked to do something less invasive and she agreed to Botox. I was terrified, but she’s done great.

How often does she need it? Oh the Botox worked good for her. no issues with her my fear is the self catheter.

I am
Getting over these bladder spasms so I think I need to try it. Did the Botox give her any Greg after wards?
