It's not the disease of AMN that is giving you urine infections, it's because you are probably not properly emptying your bladder. I have been through this whole business a lot. I was retaining 100 - 200 ml of urine. This causes bad bacteria to multiply which causes the infection. The solution may be to do intermittent catheterisation which lets you empty the bladder properly. I have been doing it for the last year or so. This may be what they recommend for you.

The camera test will tell you a lot about the way the bladder is behaving.

Good luck with these tests.

My urologist did a bladder dynamics test. This basically is filling your bladder with fluid through a catheter than emptying. They check for nerve response for needing to go and they get the strength. They also measure input quantity and output.

The urologist gets a great idea of the ability of the bladder.
