Bladder Problem With No Answers... Posted: 10-28-04 05:55am
Hello there everyone, I am an american guy
in japan with a japanese girlfriend who is
has been having some bladder problems
recently. Of course she went to the
doctor here and they did bacteria tests on
two seperate times, but the results were
both negative for any bacteria. She has
the feeling like she has to urinate, like
someone is squeezing her bladder but
nothing is released. She doesnt have
any pain either, just the feeling of
having to urinate, sometimes for 4 hours
straight! Anyone have any advice?
The doctors here have been telling her it
is just a mental problem such as stress.
Any help anyone can give will be very
appreciated! Also I read all the related
topics to this on this site but couldnt
find the exact same problem...

If the problems with your girlfriend
persist, she should go see a urologist to
find out what is wrong with her bladder.
Just because she doesn't have an
infection, doesn't mean that nothing is
wrong. Her problem sounds very annoying
and I can relate to it because I have
cystitis but when I have the need to go,
then I usually go. But I did have urinary
retention earlier this month and it caused
that same type of problem with me. I also
have an ovarian cyst which is causing
pressure and squeezing pain in my lower
abdomen and making me feel like I need to
go but I really don't have to.
