Hi Shelly

I saw your post on the internet, i know it was posted a few years ago but i was wondering if you could offer me some advice.

After a year of utis and thrush, i got a mild uti in November and it never got better (although i was bacteria free after taking antibiotics). My symptoms were frequency and urgency. I felt like a drank afew sips and would need to urinate loads. Now, 6 months later I also feel bladder pain sometimes. I saw a urologist, who did a cystoscopy and he thinks it is not IC, but just pelvic floor contactions, made worse by stress. Ive been taking muscle relaxers for 6 weeks now, it hasnt made much difference to the urgency/frequency and i still get the bladder pain, but i think my muscles between my legs are slightly less clenched as sometimes before, they felt pernmanently clenched and i couldnt unclench them.

I find it hard to believe that my symptoms are only from tight muscles, especially as i feel irritation and pain in my bladder sometime. Do you think it could be IC? He just did a basic cystoscopy, he didnt test for potassium or all those special tests.

Any advice would be great. Thanks

Hello,
My name is Rachel, I am 19 years old.
Recently I have felt the need to go to the toilet a lot it is not painful however nothing happens when I go.
Any ideas to why this could be happening, is there any chance it could be an STI?
Thanks.

I sometimes have UTI (urinary tract infection) as i have right now. usually you can get an antibiotic and it will go away - meaning that you most likely will have to go to your DR. Me, i usually have a leftover prescription refill at my pharmacy and inquire there - my DR. always gives me an extra refill that is good for a year from the original prescription - but make sure you ask the pharmacist if the antibiotic is correct for your UTI. make sure you And, in addition to getting correct treatment, you can get an over the counter "helper" which will stop the frequent goings and the tingle. You can find it in the pain relief section of most drugstores with names such as uristat and azo or some such name - ask the pharmacist. Now this product which reduces the symptoms only masks them, doesn't cure them, you need more than this, you need an antibiotic (also, it makes your urine come out an orange-red color!!). but, if these symptoms of the frequent urination with no product, the tingle (or pain) are constantly recurring, you may have a different problem. A chronic one, which is not as widely curable. I hope i helped you with your comment, probably not STD but the antibiotic would probably help all.

I have this kinda thing going on as well like 3 nights ago I when to go pee at bed time and the feeling never left ...it's not a full badder feeling as much as a feeling in my penis that I have not got it all out even when I have I sometimes have a small bit of relief when I forget about it or am busy moving my legs a lot like shaking them helps but mostly I'm always thinking about it,it's driving me crazy I can't fully relax or it feels like I'ma drip on myself even when I won't...and half the time I don't even really pee it's a drip my friends say it's UTI but I don't think so no I haven't been to the dr. yet I'm scared there won't be a cure from this feeling...

I have had the problem of waking up in the middle of the night or early morning to go to the bathroom, which I never used to do. I find myself feeling like it's urgent going and barley anything comes out and the felling of urgent peeing never goes away, nothing or little comes out. Sometimes I pee out slight blood. It doesn't burn when peeing but just a constant irritating feeling along with the other things. I tend to lay on my stomach and try to ignore it long enough to sleep and when I would wake up it would be gone. But recently it's been happening every morning and than I try to go about my day and ignore it long enough to go away but everytime I go to the bathroom I fear it will happen. It's exhausting. What is this!?

Ladies if you've been checked and treated for a UTI, and if ur results came back negative, then u need to have a papsmear done by your GYN...as having the urge to urinenate right after u go can also be a symptom of cervical cancer.

I just went through a kidney stone issue and my stent was removed 10 days ago. Yesterday I felt like many that I could not empty my bladder. I went to emergency last night and my urine showed no infection. They inserted a cathator expecting alot of urine to flow but that is not the case. They removed the cathator and I took some meds from my stone issue and this morning I feel pretty good. The main med is phenazopridine.
Feeling like you have to pee all of he time is very uncomfortable.

how do i contact you? ive had many uti's and antiobiotics but even though the infections have cleared ( not showing in cultures) im left with all the symptoms. Needing to wee all the time or feeling like i need to, however i do urinate normally, it does finish in slow dribs and drabs but overall it is like passing urine normally, However the feeling of needing to go never goes away and it feels like a pressure in my vagina. I went on holiday for a week and had no sexual intercourse and my symptoms massively calmed down? shall i see a urologist? I cant hold urine in my bladder for more than 20 mins to half an hour

I had the symptoms some of you have had, going on for a month - constantly needing to wee (pressure in bladder) that was keeping me up all night sometimes, going 30+ times a day, my life ruled by the feeling of needing to urinate. I thought it was an infection or stress (though no stinging/burning). I was getting really thirsty and weeing loads. Then my daughter (8), who had no idea about my condition, said she felt like she needed the toilet again as soon as she'd just gone. So I looked at external factors.
Turns out we are both sensitive to the blue specks in the washing powder! I'd got a new sort a month ago (non bio but flecked with blue) and when I went back to our old stuff, and rewashed all our underwear, the feeling went away. I was SOOOO relieved. Just wanted to share my solution as it's so simple and I hope someone else can have that weight off their mind (bladder!) lifted as I have. Blue toilet paper and shower gels etc can irritate in the same way according to an IC website.

I don't know if this thread is still active, but here goes.
I had what my doc called a mild uti about 5 weeks ago.. He gave me a 3 day course of antibiotics which didn't work and I ended up with a kidney infection.. After a week on another antibiotic all symptoms went away. Last week all symptoms gave back apart from the burning but the doc did a dip test and it was clear, but as he could see I was in a lot of pain and recent infections he put me on a course of a different antibiotics.(Seem to be getting meds but no answers.
Pain in back is getting worse and the bladder pressure really is bad I find its worse when I'm sitting down. Its really starting to have an impact on daily life and I'm fed up of being in agony all the time.. Can anyone help? (I'm a 29yr old female)

Hi everyone. I have this condition right now, and saw a doctor today. She identified it as a bladder infection and provided me with some medication (trimethoprim pills to be taken once a day, and Ural which needs to be diluted in water and drunk every four hours).

Here are some instructions from the doctor:
1) wipe from front to back after urinating, or bacteria from feces could pass up to the vaginal area.
2) if sexually active, it is vital to pee straight after, before falling asleep.
3) drink lots of water to flush out as much bacteria as possible, naturally.
4) urinate as soon as you feel the urge to; don't hold off for more than 30 minutes. (This is for even after the bladder infection is gone).

Here are some things that I did over the week that I've had great discomfort:
1) I placed a heat pack on my lower tummy or inbetween my thighs, which seemed to help me stay seated without needing to jump up and run to the toilet every 5 seconds.
2) I didn't have sex.
3) when seated, I'd sit with my back touching the back of the seat. I could sit pretty comfortably until I felt the need to pee (as in, when I really needed to pee) which was probably once every hour.
4) I'd sleep as much as I possibly could. Lying down seemed to make things better
5) I'd use a diaper for during sleep, just in case I suddenly peed again. I have a baby sister, and so I just cut up the sticky bits off the diaper and placed it as I would a sanitary pad.
6) I avoided standing up for long periods of time.

I hope all this helped! If you're freaking out like I was, please go check it out now, or it really could get a lot worse.

I have the same problem. I have recently come home and pee'd my pants uncontrollably. Only just today I have noticed that now when I feel like I need to pee I go to the toilet and nothing comes out or only a little bit. I then go back and lie or sit down and it's very uncomfortable and I have a big urge to pee like my bladder is full but I don't know? It does have a burning feeling but I feel I can't do anything.

Hi, looking on this website for desperation. My daughter is 11 and now has this constant feeling of needing a wee and a low pain in her tummy. Went to the doctors they gave her blood test and ultrasound which were both clear. Has this problem gone with your little boy now?
Can anybody please help?

To: Have to urinate, but can't!

So, I am having the same issues as all of you and this started sudden last night. I went to the store and bought AZO's and drank a lot of water and it seems to be working thankfully. I hope this goes away soon, because it is very discomforting. I just bought the standard AZO and which will turn your pee a weird orange color. The discomforting pain I was getting was unable to urinate and a little bit would come out and a little blood. Also, feeling like I had to go every 2 minutes and being uncomfortable while trying to urinate. I hope my remedy helps me, and helps you.

I have been having these odd sensations under my scrotom for the last 3 days... I thought it was just because I havent had sex for 2 weeks, which was not normal for me... not even masturbating.

Just yesterday, I had a sensation I wanted to pee, then when I got to the toilet, the urine stream wont start... I then forced it... then blood started to drip which concerned me.

I got home and tried to jerk off and see if blood would still be there... good thing it disappeared although the odd sensations come back from time to time... and cause for alarm here?

Suicide is the only thing that I think about day to day as I went to doctors and specialist etc you name it, let doctors put their fingers up my bum just to say "your normal".
     Truth is I am NOT normal, It started when I was around 18 years old, I'm in my friends car and i MAKE  them pull off to the side so I can urinate, when I unzip NOTHING (1st time really confused me) after slowly realizing the transformation my left testicle as i felt throbbing and PAINT as it grew and twisted in my sac, for 1 day I pee'd blood, I slept in a feedle position as I lay in pain trying to sleep for over 1 year.
     I made attempts to kill myself in the past thinking my left nut will EXPLODE.. "yea immagin living with that feeling for over 2 years" I put my pride away and seek help in every direction BUT  i cannot go out no more ( I gave up on living now, can't live like this no more) so what I'm kind of asking at the age of 25 now is, what do I do before I kill myself ?
     Situation now is I don't go out, quit smoking cigarettes / drinking beer / staying up late / eating healthy and I don't go outside, when im in my house I don't feel the urgent need to urinate it only happends when im outside, a friends house, or anywhere other than home" I cannot work or support myself ANY longer without money, can someone please help or point me in the right direction ?

I have the same problem . When I need to pee a tiny bit will come out then it will stop and I will feel a heavy feeling in my bladder and a little burning sensation and feel like I need to push it out but nothing comes out. It hurts and after I leave the bathroom and sit down I feel the urge to pee again so it's really annoying me. The worst thing is I'm only a 12 year old girl and I'm very embarrassed to tell anyone! Please please someone help :'(

You have to see a doctor. You might have an Infection, or something worse. I have one right now, my parents won't take me to the doctors. But what WILL help is if you can't go to the doctors until like 3-Idk how many days, try drinking ALOT of water, Cranberry Juice (I do Ocean Spray, its a company) and try eating less at dinner. Hope this helped. But, it practically happens to about everyone. I am a HighSchooler, (Last Year) and, it is painful. Sitting a the desk and it makes you feel grumpy. Ergh.
*FACT*: DO NOT PUT PRESSURE ON IT. It will just make the feeling of needing to use the bathroom MUCH worse. Trust me. I tried it.

I found your post about have IC and think it may be what I have. I don't have a UTI but I have been to the er for a bladder infection (kicked me on my butt may I add). Since then it seems that it is happening more often, the urge to pee anytime I sit and forget bedtime. I am miserable and would love to read the links that you offered on March 3, 2009.

Thanks for your time and any info!!!

Help here! I'm
Only 12... I had these symptoms late last year. This year around late feb, I went to hospital after feeling a sharp needle pain at my lower right adomen. The doctor examined me and couldn't find a cure but he injected me with something that I didn't know than the pain was gone. Two days later I went back to the hospital for another check up. They couldn't find any cause or cure. They made another appointment for me about a month later after I did a ultra sound scan. When I came back, they got the results and everything seemed perfectly fine... The urge to pee was also gone. However after a week, I felt the urge to pee again and in the morning I went to the toilet 4 times. I'm very worried as im only 12. Can someone help? Ive been to many different doctors alr.

Ladies I had this for 7 months. Your body is telling u theres something wrong. its not all in your head. It is the most debilitating problem. Mine progressed I had an urge to urinate even when I'd just been to the toilet then I got vulva swelling. I saw 13 drs they all miss diagnosed me causing further complications. They also told me it was all in my head.

I had an ultrasound when it all started which didn't detect the problem. 7 months later I request an MRI which found a 7cm ovarian cyst which was displacing everything- this had been completely missed by an ultrasound. I had surgery to remove the cyst and they found grade 4 endeometriosis. Please please get yourselves a scan and continue to search until you find a gyno who will help.
