Confused Somatovisceral reflex - urine dribble

So here I go with an UNCOMFORTABLE subject. When my symptoms of TOS flair to the point of having spasms of muscles surrounding the area of posterior lower ribs, I have noticed that I have a slow urine dribble unrelated to laughing, coughing or lifting. When my neck, arm, upper and mid back symptoms subside, I do not have the urine dribble.

I do not have any lower back pain or symptoms in my legs. I do not have spinal stenosis in Cspine and my MRI was normal. I only have the symptoms of TOS, when they acutely flare, I get slow urine dribble. Disgusting! I am too young for Depends.
I am a bit confused because I only get the Dribble when I have a severe TOS flare.

I mentioned it to the second Chiropractor that fills in for the regular one on occasion. He said it sounds like a somatovisceral reflex.

So after a bit of research, here is what I found.

I also found a syndrome even more unrecognized than TOS. It is called Pelvic Pain and Organic Dysfunction.

Does anyone else have experience with symptoms that seem unrelated to TOS, but occur only when TOS flares?
