Constant need to pee

6 replies

I've always weed a lot but sometimes I need to go every 15-20 mins.
It's not a little, it's vast amounts of pee. Where does it all come from?!

I can literally feel my bladder become full and it is very uncomfortable until I pee, its then ok for 15 mins or so then repeats.

Its very inconvienient and quite frankly embarrassing having to go this often.

It doesn't burn or anything like cystitis.

I can't drink a cup of tea in a morning cos it'll go right through me. Its also random. Some evenings I'm fine others I have a big flare up.

Anyone the same or am I just odd?

I have recently had to give up tea because it was causing these problems. It took ages to find out what the problem was and I was becoming demented with it. I ended up with two kidney infections and about three courses of antibiotics.

Try a few days on: Evian water (it's the least irritating), milk or pear juice.

I now drink redbush tea only. If I do drink normal tea or some alcohol I'm back to square one again and peeing all the time.

Look up the thread here for interstitial cystitis and see if it rings any bells for you.

You could have it mildy, or have irritable balddder. have a look too at [www.cobfoundation.org.]]
