For many, urological health concerns may seem a part of normal aging, embarrassing or simply unimportant. But, the fact is that some of these conditions, if neglected, can become serious. So, it is always advisable to consult your physician in case you experience any urological problems. There are numerous treatments available for urological conditions.

Great advice Mastif, whole it is true that like everything else about us, our bladders do age and let us down a bit more as we get older, we should not ignore any symptoms in that area. I can remember a Oncologist that I once worked for saying to me that you would never be unconcious of any of the natural functions like breathing or going to the loo, they should be totally without us having to think about them at all. Any changes to any bodily function has to be investigated.

I have had increasing problems with frequent, urgent, profuse urination that started either while I was on paxil or soon after going off it, although the frequency problem not the profuse volumes of it started long before that, possibly from benzos which Ive been on still am for almost forty years now. I just read recently that this is a common problem with prolonged benzo use. No one ever told me that before

But it was worse early in my paxil w/d and I was having urinary incontence too. Now very full bladder still wakes me during the night, which is a bummer, and runs my life in terms of being out and about going from ladies room to ladies room. I know its not my body overreading it because the volume of urine has never been so much. Again, might be due to the benzos.

But the incontinence I actually had had to wear incontinent pads, and even they werent enough given the huge volume of urine stopped after a while, and I think it was because I had stopped eating wheat - though not for that reason.

I have a particular problem with allergies and sensitivities, but I found it interesting that although I still have to rush to get to the rest room in time with full bladder, when I recently started eating wheat products again and thought I was fine on them now didnt have the symptom that had originally made me stop eating wheat, twice I had urinary incontinence even though I only had to walk a few feet to the bathroom.

I stopped eating wheat products and have had no more urinary incontinence Im not saying its wheat specifically, but even if a med is making your bladder more sensitive, its a long chance, but at least for me, a sensitivity to a food group seemed to make it worse to where I could not control it.

Not likely to be relevant to most people, but thought Id mention it in case it helps anyone. Still wish I could find a solution to incredibly full bladder issues and I dont drink that much liquids, certainly not at night; and its a problem 24/7 and not just affecting sleep - cant even sit through a movie most of the time. But earlier in w/d I had a literally full bladder every 5-15 minutes - and such dry mouth I had to keep a glass of water by the bed because Id wake up coughing; thats long gone, thank goodness

Thanks for that Dreamer! My mom is having this trouble at the moment and strangely I think she was also on Paxil. I am going to let her know what you have written and maybe it will help her too. She is a big bread eater, so it would not hurt her to cut that out a bit! It is so great to get this kind of help on this forum, I love it!
