Hi,
I've got quite an odd bladder problem I'm wondering whether anyone could shed some light on.
The problem happens mostly at night time before bed, and It's been happening for about a week now. I urinate but never seem to be able to completely empty my bladder. And within 10 minutes have to return to the toilet. This can happen quite a few times. I never wake up needing to urinate, and during the day I can easily spend 4 or 5 hours without urinating.
I did do a bit of googling and the inevitable 'prostate cancer' came up, but I'm not too worried about it as the average age of diagnosis is 71 and I'm 24.
Has anyone had similar? I'm not convinced it's anxiety related, as I've been feeling 'fine' for a few weeks now.
The list of explanations I've thought up are:
- Infection
- Dehydration
- Obesity
P.S. Also quite often my urine is cloudy, has been on and off for a few years. I told my GP last year about it, she did dip-test on a sample (which was non-cloudy) and said it looked OK.
