Nice video. Thank you

[@onurhantoy8441]

Could you get better outcome than tablets? I have over active bladder problem, It is quite terrible disease affected whole social life :(

[@NickBrook]

Some do, some don’t. PTNS avoids tablet side effects but generally we would try tablets before ptns - there are some Medicare criteria as well

How often do people return for treatment after the first 12 sessions?

[@scrimloverz]

i would also like to know i start ptns next week and i feel like its not going to work and doing 12 weeks of it doesn’t seem worth it.

Is this useful for weak sense of the bladder and push urine abdominal muscles
