Could be a nerve issue coming off the spine.

Could it be a side effect of 1 of your medications? I got bladder pain, stiff bladder, urinary incontinence, and difficulty fully emptying my bladder after being on an antiseizure medication, lamotrigine. I have been off it 10 days and although the problem has lessened, it still there. My physiotherapist says there's a connection between the bladder and the lower back. Do you have lower back problems? Best wishes

You might find the information in Dr. Christiane Northrup's books helpful. She has a website, just google it. What comes to my mind is lack of estrogen. Does your urine show bacteria? Another idea is food allergies, I have heard that chocolate can cause urinary irritation. When my pelvis tilts a little inward, it feels like I need to pee all the time. If I go to the chiropractor and he adjusts my pelvis, the need to pee goes away. You could also try acupuncture. Lastly, drink a ton of water and make sure your underwear has a completely cotton gusset. Not a cotton lining next to your skin and a polyester or nylon piece on the outside of the gusset.

    Is anyone here allergic to Sulfa that is currently taking Diamox? I have been diagnosed with IH now for almost 2 years. I am allergic to Sulfa drugs meaning that my throat will swell up so my Neurologist put me on Topamax. I was suffering from major loud whoosing noises and the topamax helped that but everyday I still hear those mainly between 6 - 12 pm. I am at my wits end and have not went...
