Members overwhelmingly confirmed that bladder issues are a common and frustrating symptom of fibromyalgia, with many describing frequent urination, urgency without output, and bladder leaks despite doing pelvic floor exercises. Several members shared that they also deal with IBS alongside bladder problems, making everyday life require constant awareness of bathroom locations. A recurring theme was the physical and emotional toll of these symptoms, with one member finding relief through the Mona Lisa procedure and others expressing the anxiety of being unable to access a bathroom when needed.

Oh Yes! With irritable bladder and IBS life gets pretty interesting. Always have to locate facilities everywhere we go. 😯

At work I go every hour. I think for the most part it’s a fear of being stuck in the classroom if we have a code red. I would never be able to hold it. But when I have access to a bathroom that I can use whenever it’s much less . Unless I’m drinking a lot of liquid or coffee.

I probably pee more than 20x a day. Is this normal?

I had the Mona Lisa procedure done. They said it is not designed for that but i said I wanted to still do it. After the first procedure no more leaking. Money well spent.
