I'm 28 years old and have been suffering from painful bladder syndrome/IC and over active bladder syndrome from childhood although wasn't diagnosed until about 10 years ago. It affects every aspect of my life and really holds back my progress with important and every day things. I've had enough. I am serious about having my bladder removed. How do I go about this? From what I've read online, people usually have to subject themselves to all sorts of different treatments before they are deemed a candidate. I'm just not interested in putting myself through any more pain or stress over this condition. I already have installations and have taken a cocktail of different medications and analgesia. Right now I'm just taking Cimetidine with no effect.

Thank you for any insight.
