i get up about 10 times a night to piss, went to specialists who deal with the bladder,prostate ect n they did a million tests n said everythings fine n gave me a lollypop n sent me home. i dont understand, , ive been dealing with anxious issues n i start thinking i cant breath at night n drive to emergency room n just sit in parking lot n my breathing goes right back to normal, when its happening i feel like im gonna die n its scary as fuck
Crazy I am in same situation. Regular doctor couldn't figure it out, tried the usual tests for urinary tract infection, blood work, prostate exam, etc. All were negative so I finally got approved to see a Uruologist. This asshole insisted on another prostate exam (sadistic torture) and tried 2 different pills, neither did anything. Finally they did some catheater test, which took me to limits of my ability to withstand torture. They literally put a catheater (a needle) way up the hole in your dick, put a fucking sick rubber packet up your asshole, which they then inflate, to put extra pressure on your prostate! Then they IV you with maximum amount of liquid your bladder can hold and make you hold it as long as possible until you basically buurst and release it all. It was insane and no description given before I showed up.
All that and no answer. They think I have something called a "neurogenic bladder," but offered no treatment or ideas what casued it or a cure. So now I still piss 4-5 times a night. I too have anxiety, but must be more to it because I have been given Xanax by a doctor which knocked me out, but I'd still have to piss and wake up.
Since there are several people on here with similar symptoms, wonder if any diet or supplement has had any influence? Has anyone ever been cured or helped by anything or anyone? Sounds crazy to "normal" guys but a serious pain for anyone and destroys sleep quality. I have tried eliminating fluids earlier and earlier and no real difference. Milk thistle, cranberry extract, saw palmetto, etc and nothing has helped :-(
