OT IBS related question

[Galadriel]

Now those of you with IBS know that one day you can be bunged up (constipated) and the next be the other way.



I was wondering, well is it normal to well feel like you have to
urinate more frequently when you are bunged up? I get this way but I'm
not sure if its normal or not. I don't think its an infection or
anything, it doesn't burn or anything like that, but its just feels
like I have to go again soon after going. I think this may be because
there can be pressure put on the bladder. Is this normal though?

hey, yup I get it as well,if I am really badly bunged up I do tend to go and urinate more often especially at night for me for some reason.


Tis nasty, hope you are alright at the moment hun?

Me too, I don't think the cold weather helps either, I always go more when it's cold.

Whew glad its not just me! It sure makes it doubly uncomfortable.

Sometimes even if I'm just having well bowel problems (not necessarily
constipation, but other stuffs that can cause bloating) then I also get
it then too. It really sucks to feel like you have to keep going pee!



I also think cold weather doesn't help either, I too notice I feel like I gotta go more when I'm cold.

I am the exact same way and it is because there is more pressure on your bladder. It seems to be worse for me at night, too.

You know, I never really put these two things together, but now that I think about it, when I am constipated, I have to go urinate more frequently, especially at night.
