Hi all!
I am having what I believe is an increase in urinary frequency that has been creeping up for several months. I do not drink a lot of fluids and still need to go about 15x in an average day (2ce at night). I have had one episode recently where I lost control and had a bit of an accident.
I had a scheduled checkup with my neuro this week and mentioned it. He did a UA to rule out a UTI (which I did not have) and then had his nurse call me to say he was calling in a prescription for Detrol LA. I have multiple brain lesions and 2 C-spine ones and have been on Aubagio for about a year.
My question is this: Can my doc be sure the frequency issue is from MS? Does it indicate progression? Is it just one of those things that comes with the territory? My doc seemed to act like this was no big deal, but I am kind of freaking out about what this could mean. Also wondering if 15x/day is really that much? I would love advice from anyone who has dealt with this sort of thing! Thank so much!
