Hello , I was diagnosed seven years with MS . I have had two relapses which was five years ago . I find I have had urine infections constantly draining me and I have taken lots of antibiotics . What I have found is a sudden urge to use the loo. Also this has only been happening the last month but I have leaked during the night. I have just had an ultrasound and it came back normal . Just wondered if anyone has had the night time leaks and if so does it eventually stopped .#### Heading
Hello. So far I haven’t wet myself during the night but have certainly experienced some near disasters. The problem goes through periods when it worse than usual. The only solution I have found is to wear Tenna pants or similar at night and not to drink much in the evening
I’ve not experienced this issues, but I suffer with urine retention, unable to fully empty my bladder. I was seen by a urologist for further testing. I would maybe suggest seeing a urologist, also maybe cutting out foods drinks that can irritate the bladder, like caffeine, fizzy drinks spicy foods and see if things improve for you. There’s things that can be done to ease this issue. Personally I self catheterise 5-6 times a day and because of bladder spasms I’m on the waiting list for bladder Botox as I’m unable to take the medication for spasms due to they all contain lactose which causes tachycardia. I hope you receive the support you need for this issue.
Hello
I am wearing pads but very annoying . I have now bought cranberry juice and I have stopped having coffees but i only ever had two a day . I only ever had to rush to the loo when I had these urine infections which started about one year ago . Thank you for answering as it is nice to hear other people’s views .
Hello
I am under a urologist . The lady time I saw him was March this year and I was booked for an appointment for July . Unfortunately this appointment was cancelled and now I have been given an appointment for next week but a telephone consultation. I haven’t really been able to speak about this so I thought I would write on this forum. Yes I have begun to drink cranberry juice , no coffee and trying to watch what I eat . Thank you for your answer .
You’re very welcome, and hopefully you’ll get some more answers with your telephone consultation. Hopefully it will lead to an appointment and further testing to find out exactly what’s going on.
Many thanks

Used to.
Now I perform an absurd amount of kegel exercises every single day to maintain urinary continence and fecal continence.
