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....

      Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      There is a 10 year old post in this forum on Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream. The information is somewhat outdated and the thread is closed to further comment, so here is a new one. Edy's And Dreyer's Grand Vanilla Bean Ice Cream - 1.5 Quart is labeled "Gluten Free". This is a different answer than years gone by. I don't know the answer for any other flavor at this moment. On 1 May, 2026, Edy's website says: "As a general rule, the gluten in Edy's and Dreyer's® frozen dessert products is present only in the added bakery products, such as cookies, cake or brownies. We always label the eight major food allergens on our package by their common name. We recommend to always check the label for the most current information before purchasing and/or consuming a product. The exception to this rule is our Slow Churned French Silk frozen dairy dessert, which contains gluten in the natural flavors." https://www.icecream.com/us/en/brands/edys-and-dreyers/faq It seems that Edy's and Dreyer's are more celiac-friendly than they were 10 years ago. Once I found enough information to make today's buying decision, I stopped researching.

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      My dad had an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm.  Fortunately, it was discovered during an exam.  The doctor could feel my dad's heart beating in his stomach/abdomen.  The aneurysm burst when the doctor first touched it in surgery.  Since he was already hooked up to the bypass machine, my dad survived ten more years.  Close call! Triple A's can press on the nerves in the spinal cord causing leg pain.  I'm wondering if bowing the head might have increased the pressure on an aneurysm and then the nerves.   https://gulfcoastsurgeons.com/understanding-abdominal-aortic-aneurysm-symptoms-and-causes/ Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Presenting as a Claudication https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4040638/

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      You have an odd story there. To me, the mechanical trigger suggests a mechanical problem and lower leg pain is a classic sciatica symptom. The fact that the clear mechanical linkage is no longer there does not take away from the fact that it was - maybe something shifted and the simple alignment is no longer there. There's also a good chance I am wrong and it's something else entirely. @Scott Adams's mention of shingles is interesting. It seems possible but unlikely to me, but who knows. However, I am writing here to reinforce the idea of getting the shingles vaccine. Ask anyone who has ever had shingles and they will bend your ear telling you how bad it is. I watched my wife go through it and it scared the bejeebers out of me. Even if you had the chicken pox vaccine, you really want to get the shingles vaccine.

      Oddly this effect has gone now, just happened yesterday evening, the nerve pain is now back to its usual "unpredictable" random self again - but that was the only time I ever had some mechanical trigger for it, don't know why! There's no (or wasn't) actual pain in my neck - it was inside the leg, but when I looked down, now though, the leg pain just comes and goes randomly as before again.
