Bladder control

5 replies

Whenever I get ill I lose bladder control I.e. need the loo more often and leak if I sneeze, cough, puke etc. This never happens when I'm not ill. I can normally cough and sneeze etc and not have an issue but the minute I'm ill I have problems. Is this normal? I get cold fairly regularly, maybe every 2-3 months. I'm beginning to wonder whether these aren't colds but could be recurrent UTIs. Would they have cold type symptoms? It's practically impossible to get a doctors appointment unless you're dying where I live so I'm reluctant to try to get an appointment.

How long has this been going on for?
I never had a UTI that wasn't very painful.

A good few years. It's not painful.

I guess could just be bladder weakness. You probably need expert advice.

Yeah it probably is. Just seems weird it's only when I've got a cold or being sick.
