Feeling Like You Have To Urinate But You Don't.

When I am really bloated I feel like I have to urinate but when I try to go nothing happens. This happens to me all of the time especially when I working out. Anyone relate? I guess this is just a factor of being bloated and the pressure on your bladder.

Also, please look the thread "Blood test-which number is most important?", I posted the results of my blood test and I would appreciate anyone's help on figuring out what it means.

I think women probably have more "fun" with this aspect then men. Especially those of us who have had at least one pregnancy. That urge can come from so many things - diet, mild uti, mild bladder infection, lack of enough liquids (I'm guilty of that one a lot) and if I'm constipated for more than a day, I'll leak. Good thing the bathroom is real close to my office at work. Could be worse, I guess. At least I don't have to wear an adult diaper!!

Yes--and it also is different for me at different times of the month ;) . When I'm coming back from a gluten reaction, when the nausea lifts, I always have the urge to go more. A lot of things can affect it.

If you have any burning sensation when that happens, get in right away and check for a bladder infection. It does happen without an infection, especially those of us who have had a hysterectomy. But that is also the first sign of an infection. So you want to really know the difference.

Check for burning, a touch of blood, and a mild rise in temperature.

If these are not there, then relax and start wearing a panty liner :)

Viola,

Your last line is hilarious. I guess I will have to come to terms with it. :)

No burning, blood, or such I just feel like I have to go but I can't. Maybe I will bring it up to my dr when I see him in a couple of weeks.

Thanks for the help.

There is a couple of other things that cause this, even in men as I've noticed in both my hubby and other male relatives.

If you tend to worry about where the nearest bathroom is going to be when you are out, or .. have company coming and you don't want to be embarressed by frequent bathroom visits .. then this really tends to happen big time. It's triggered by stress, the more you worry, the more you need that last bathroom visit before you go, or before your company gets there. And of course, you really don't have any left to go with.

Our bodies are really strange sometimes. But just to make sure it isn't something really physical .. DO ask your doctor.

Hum? I never really thought of it as something actaully wrong, just annoying. I WebMd'd cystitis and I am not sure if I match the majority of the symptoms except the feeling to urinate. I think I will definately talk to the dr. Jenvan, do you know anyone who has this (cystits)? Is it related to celiac?

I do think Viola might have a point about stress b/c i am always stressed out. Big time. I can't seem to not be stressed. Gray hair at 23 and all!

Erin-

I had cystitis for a period of time, but eventually it went away...Strange as it was. Docs didn't have any answers, just tried lots of antibiotics. For me it coincided with the onset of an infection and then a ruptured cyst, but it persisted for months after both of those had been resolved. My only symptoms was feeling like I always had to go to the bathroom. I'm going to pm with some other stuff....

      Alcohol

      By Suze046 · Posted

      Hey! I’m recently gluten free and yes I really struggle with alcohol now. I haven’t really drank in 2 months as it just made me feel awful the next day in terms of stomach ache mainly. I’ve had a couple of glasses of white wine here and there (mainly low sulphate) but every time it gives me a gut ache. I think it’s because but guy is so damaged from my journey to discovering my gluten intolerance and hopefully this will improve but honestly I’m just not bothered about having a drink now. I can’t even touch Prosecco or champagne I think the bubbles really upset me!

      I just wanted to share my support for you. Rant away. We all know that, and have experiences like that at some point. I am sorry for that very unpleasant, and emotionally isolating reminder of your medical condition. Which always is exacerbated by the hunger. I will admit many of my family friends, and coworkers found it easier to exclude me than to accommodate me. I also have to be very strict with cross contamination so in hindsight they did me a favor.  The sting however can often still be unearthed when I read experiences like yours.  I am sorry you had that occur. I hope you, and the coworkers can find the easy more accommodating experiences again after this unfortunate incident. Best wishes.

      Diagnosed gluten allergy but not Celiac

      By Awol cast iron stomach · Posted

      "...hemorrhoids, constipation and diarrhea" . Heard of indeed. Experienced too. In hindsight, I can remember from age 2 having, and trying to convey my issues. I went 38 years misdiagnosed. So yes one can have these issues. I did have to go back on gluten for a gluten challenge. I failed that challenge and 6 days in they give me permission to stop, and I proceed with my scopes as scheduled. Post those 6 days I had gained 13 intolerances. I had to remove many foods, and reintroduce them back in. Nine years later I have two that remain gluten, and corn. I found it helpful to follow a whole foods diet. I also found autoimmune (AIP) protocol diet/recipes, and Paleo diet/recipes helpful. I still enjoy many of those homemade version recipes. I still continue to make my own salad dressings even if I can find a gluten-free store bought version. Fresh taste best to this palate now.  I did give up many grains I was off many and reverted to coconut flour and almond flour as work arounds .  I still remember the first time my gut experienced the reintroduction of quinoa. It wasn't sure if it wanted to flare or not. In 30 minutes it reported back ok this will pass. Many foods were removed post gluten challenge for me for 2 years and 4 months. At the 2 year 4 month mark is when my body said ok let's eat again, but don't ever feed me gluten again! I wish you the best.

      if you have already learned that Gluten is the cause of your symptoms, of course there is no need to add it back into your diet— your decision could save you a lot of needless suffering. One thing to consider is that if you do have celiac disease, your first- degree relatives may also need to get screened for it, because, like diabetes the disease is genetic, although many of its triggers seem to be environmental factors. You may want to consider getting a genetic test for celiac disease, so you can at least warn your relatives if it turns out that you do carry a celiac gene.
