i would defo get checked out as you could be holding water retention....had it once but i had a prolaspe and my pessary had lodged on bladder....you really need too see a doctor goodluck itsso nerve rattling awful feeling aswell...as panic can set. in....But still drink plenty as i was advised too....

I think you should get checked out, maybe a trip to A+E. You shouldn't risk not being able to pee

That's true it could back up into your kidneys and cause a major infection and if you are retaining urine you are really prone to a bladder?infection oh just ask me how I know!!!

Let us know how you doing😊

Hi,I've got an appointment at the urologists tomorrow so hopefully they can sort something out.

I had a similar thing a few years ago, I was only passing small amount when I did pee. I ended up going to the Urology department who carried out an ultrasound and found I was retaining a litre of urine. I had a pressure test on my bladder and it was found that I had no pressure from my bladder . The outcome was that I have to self catheterise 4 times a day. iv not had any problems since apart from having bladder stones which required removal via an endoscopy. if I was you Id get and see my GP and get a referral to the Urology department.

Your'e not alone in the self cath. Dept!

[MikParker1958 in reply to Pantani]

Thnx for reply,what does self catherising involve

[Nickcv]

I'm another one who has to self catheterize at least 4 times a day due to chronic urinary retention. I retain 2 litres of urine and in my case it is due to nerve damage attributed to an old back injury, I suffer from degenerative disc disease as a result of this injury.

Make sure you never wait that long...ever! Urine will back up to the kidneys causing infection, stones or worse! You may want to see a uerologist. My bladder just stopped back in 2000 due to M.S. The doc will test you out. Do you have any nerological issues? I really hope you get to the bottom of it!🤤You don't want to be backed up like this guy! Teehee

[Lindy-loo1949]

Perhaps you should see a dr! Or go to emerg. That does not sound very good to me. They maybe we'll put you on a monitor just to see if your heart is doing okay ... where about's is the pain left side or right side?

[MikParker1958 in reply to Lindy-loo1949]

My pain is directly in middle of chest which is like heart burn to extreme,when I do finally go to loo it's always a full bladder.now I have to just go every 20 mins or so just to see if I need it

Have you not seen a doctor yet?
