I had a first flare in 2006 that included lots of bladder problems. My GP prescribed me meds and I saw a urologist who did nothing as the meds were working. I had a second flare this past Sept but was lucky not to have bladder issues except for a little bit of urgency and night waking for a few days.
Two weeks ago I had a rough week both physically and emotionally. I woke up on a Monday morning and my bad leg was slightly worse. It got worse as the week went on and I started having bladder issues reminiscent of 2006. There are times I have no urge to go even though I should. I have a constant dull pressure feeling even after voiding and get up several times in the night. The stream is weak and there is not a lot coming out. I am bloated and can tell I am not emptying. I am not in pain but it is uncomfortable. Saw GP yesterday and no infection. She didn't give me any meds this time and got me in to see urologist next Tuesday.
How common are these bladder problems?
Are bladder problems part of a flare or can they happen at any time?
Are bladder problems related to problems with your legs and walking?
What is the usual testing and treatment for this?
Thanks for answering.
