Urinary symptoms are a bit harder to treat...have you seen a specialist in neurogenic bladder for help with this?

I avoid specialists as a general rule and I'm better off for it IMO. My GP has been better than all of them put together. So no, I've seen a urologist to consider options and that's all. That's all I'll likely do as the urologist was a rare exception and was open and honest IMO. He basically said if it's a neurogenic bladder then there isn't much to be done other than self catheter. He told me he'd advise strongly against the permanent ones.
I seem to be still hanging in with the digestive issues by eating a basically raw food diet with lots of OG sprout salads. Constipation is still intermittent but thank you for the suggestions. I'll check them out and present them to my GP for consideration.
