Is it unusual to have bladder retraction/incontinence this early? My actual DX wasn't that long ago, but even back then I had a dribble problem that came and go. It just got worse this time. I researched the net and it says not everyone with MS has bladder problems, some never do, some have just cogitive problems while others have more of a physical problems. or both.

I am seeing a Urologist.

I have to see the Neuro next down in Syracuse at the upstate thing...I forgot the exact name. They have a rehab center up stairs that is cool... If anyone will be there next Thursday, please tell. I'd be real happy to meet you. I'll probably be there most the day.

Apparently the MS is effecting my bladder and causing retention....has to be the only explanation for getting a UTI. Two days ago I almost fell just standing there. I grabbed the glass part of the milk cooler in the store to balance out. I never had problems like that before a couple of weeks ago.

It's quite scary.....I know something is going on and or getting worse, but I never thought I would feel it this soon by the way everyone told me.

I haven't ridden my bike for weeks now...I just don't have any ambition to do it right now.

Sorry to write all sad like lol.... Don't worry I'm feeling a bit better, just a little mentally shocked ATM.

Thanks everyone....
