Suggest Treatment For Interstitial Cystitis
A friend suffers from interstitial cystitis to the point that she collapses from severe bladder spasms and her bladder lining is being excreted with each urination. This causes her catheters to become blocked and causes excruciating pain. She has tried everything with no success and cannot work regularly because of this condition. I thought that ozone therapy might help heal her, and if that might be so, is this type of treatment legal in Canada?
