Endo and bladder issues

Was diagnosed through laparoscopy in October 2019. Pain and symptoms have been the same since. I had one endo patch excised and one ablated. It was done at a specialist endo Centre by a specialist surgeon in the North West. They didn’t give me a follow up appointment or even see me after. Just sent me home with info on discharge notes. Over the last few months I have been waking up 6-7 times each night with a full bladder and have to urgently go to the toilet. Now I am on my period (I use tampons) I have found that I have even been wetting myself a little bit. It happened a few nights ago and also whilst I was in work yesterday. I don’t feel it when it happens. Ive been to the doctors twice and they have been convinced it’s a water infection, even though my urine tests keep showing up as clear. So I’m going to get a referral back to see the gynaecologist. Anyone else having or had similar issues? Sending love to you all. X

I had similar symptoms - urgency, feeling full all the time, feeling I hadn’t completely emptied my bladder. My gynae referred me to a urologist and after a cystoscopy I was found to have Interstitial Cystitis which can be attributed to endometriosis. I had 6 weeks of bladder installations and up until now all those symptoms have gone. Worth an ask!? Xx
