have you discussed how you are feeling with your doctor? Are you on medications that could be contributing to the way you feel as perhaps there are some alternatives that could be tried?

I completely understand as I have gone through that as well but there are times, at least for me, when the urgency is not so bad. It can be a struggle at times. Your doctor should be able to get you on some type of medication that will help that.
