(Great conversation opener, huh?!)
Ever since the onset of TM I've had problems with retention. Frequency and
urgency developed later, but in the last couple of weeks have increased almost
unbearably. It's not an all day thing: sometimes I have hours at a time when I
don't even think of needing the restroom. But other times I have to go every
few minutes. Just lately I've had a numbers of episodes of thinking I wasn't
going to make it to the bathroom. Oddly, that happens often in the car, so I
wonder if there is subconscious anxiety about not being able to get to a
bathroom quickly. But it also happens when I lie in certain positions, so I
think position might affect it? But sometimes it happens out of the blue.A
while back my dr. prescribed Ditropan and Macrobid, but I didn't start trying
them til a few days ago. I was hoping to avoid self-cathing, but it look like
I may have to check into it. I'm just so frustrated that this problem is not
only not getting better, but is increasing.
