Hello,
Without examination confirmation of a diagnosis is tough but frequent urination(polyuria) can be due to diabetes mellitus. Other possibilities are diabetes insipidus, glomerulonephritis, pyelonephritis(inflammation of the kidneys),urinary tract infection, hypercalcemia, hypokalemia(low potassium),hyperthyroidism, hyperparathyroidism and diuretic drugs. Also UTI’s need to be evaluated. For this is suggest you to consult a physician and get urine culture done. I hope it helps.
Since the last 5 days, i have been experiencing frequent urination. After i pass urine, i feel the urge to pass urine again after half hour or hour. Initially, there was slight burning when passing urine but not anymore. I got urine test done but it shows no infection. One month ago, i got digestive problems and acidity and doctor gave me Zantac for that and i was fine within a week. Now ocassionally, i experience acidity and burning in stomach so i avoid fried foods.
Hi,
The cause for the increased/frequent urination needs to be looked into. It could possibly be due to diabetes and thus will suggest you to get a blood sugar done and rule out diabetes mellitus. The second possibility is a stone in the urinary tract which can also present with increased urination and burning sensation in the urine. Please do get an ultrasound or preferably a CT-IVU to rule out a stone of the urinary tract. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care.
Obesity entails several problems probably due to the fact that obesity is a risk factor in developing disease conditions like coronary artery disease, diabetes mellitus,kidney problems and cerebrovascular problems.
I do not think "the pregnant lady"theory explains your symptoms.Obesity may play a role here but not due to the amount of weight pushing on the bladder.In pregnant women this may be the case since the uterus enlarges and presses on the bladder due to the growing fetus.
Diabetes mellitus – this can be ruled out by getting the Blood sugar tested. Diabetes inspidus – this is diagnosed by getting the urine specific gravity tested as in this the urine is more dilute. In this the concentrating ability of the kidney is lost due to decreased absorption of fluid from the kidneys. Excessive intake of fluids or the use of drugs like diuretics can also increase the volume of urine.
Since you have pituitary tumor I would suggest you get yourself investigated for diabetes insipidus. Also diabetes mellitus is another cause for frequent urination. Get your blood sugar checked. Urge incontinence and small bladder are other possibilities that should be looked at.
You need a comprehensive investigation by an urologist considering your medical history. It is difficult to comment beyond this at this stage. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted.
