Toilet problems

[ellablade]

just realised I don't go for a wee half as much as I used to. I realised this on a day trip out when my husband and daughter seemed to go to every available toilet it must have been their 4th trip when I finally had to go Anyone else suffer from this or is this nothing to do with Fibro

Are you prescribed Duloxetine.? Could be a side effect If I were you I think I would speak to gp. Could be a whole load of reasons, or not even a problem at all! Tulip

Hi Ellablade - maybe you just aren't drinking enough? It's important to stay well-hydrated, or your pain will be worse.

Most people on here complain that they're in and out of the loo all day long, so maybe you're one of the lucky ones!

My bladder is pretty strong, but I used to be running for the loo all the time because of IBS and that was a real problem. Once I started on Tramadol that stopped the 'squits' and I'm a very happy bunny these days!

Hello Ellablade,

I must say I'm the same ! and I am on Duloxetine which is used for stress incontinence but I not prescribed it for this reason. Please see links below,

I have no answers as to why this is the case as I still drink an average amount. Maybe that's just the way we are but if you feel it is worrying you, you should always mention it to your GP.

Don't forget you can get buy your RADAR key £4 for disabled toilets, for those who need to go all the time it can make life a little easier !

I am not on duloxetine. And I don't have to go to the toilet that often ... I certainly don't see it as a problem ....... Just normal and I,m thankful for it as long as you are drinking enough and your wee is a nice normal light colour I wouldn't worry
