Common Questions and Answers about Pregabalin for neurogenic bladder

I have some links that deal with a neurogenic bladder, however it does not deal with young patients like your son. The site is based on adults.
I know what it is like to have to use intermittant catherization. I cannot imagine what it must be like for a young child.

Hi,
I am a 43 year old female that was diagnosed with a neurogenic bladder 12 years ago , after the birth of my second son. If your wife would like to talk with someone in her similar situation, I would be happy to lend some support!
Thanks Kyle. I have RR MS and recently diagnosed with Detrusor Sphincter Dysserie. My bladder does not fully empty. I cath several times per day/night.
My Urologist informed, like MS, this condition is not curable. The symptoms may or may not go away at some point. Are you aware of any treatments for this condition?
Hello new to this forum, my son was born with a enlarged bladder and is now 3.5 mos. We've be trying to narrow down the cause with his urologist he is catheterized 3x daily. Recently he was diagnosed with an enlarged bowel. He urinates on his own daily and also has reg bowel movements. Vcug was good no obstruction but bladder held around 10oz. MRI was done with no findings of back. Ultra sound was done recently and kidneys are great.
ll ask for a urologist there. How do they test for neurogenic bladder? And would MS be the most likely cause of neurogenic bladder in an 18 year old male?
First, I want to tell you, I am so, so sorry for what you are experiencing!! I, too, have major bladder issues. Neurogenic Bladder. I had the Inter Stim Implant a little over a year ago. Until recently, It helped with the all of a sudden urge and loss of control.
I was hospitalized in August and November for UTI/Bladder Infection and had to have IV's at home for two weeks after the last hospitalization. For four years, I've had to wear Depends 24/7.
Hi could anyone give me any views on carbamazepine for pain please?
one example is amitriptyline, commonly prescribed to MS patients for pain. the effect is the same as that of the neurogenic bladder in that it is difficult to completely empty the bladder. this in turn can lead to UTIs. it's important to pinpoint the cause so that the appropriate remedy is sought. if the cause is medication side effects, a lower dose or as alternative med should be considered.
After having had neumerous UTI and kidney infections and after surgry to the bladderneck and prostate I was diagnosed as having a neurogenic bladder in 1996.
Like you I too have numbness in both legs and feet and use an AFO on the left foot. For me it started with numbness in my hands and arm as well as pain in the wrists and elbows.
One neurologist told me that my neurogenic bladder could not be caused by the HNPP.
benign prostatic hyperplasia; neurogenic bladder, tumors, and urinary stones .
In particular, overflow incontinence is a common symptom of benign prostatic hyperplasia. If the prostate gland is enlarged, it may obstruct the passage of urine through the urethra. This will lead to the symptoms.
I have been diagnosed with neurogenic bladder (retention 150-200 cc and had urodynamics) and bowel dysfunction. I cannot feel the need to go, have chronic constipation and something about the "squeeze reflex" being absent (I had a manometry). I was sent to a neurosurgeon for evaluation and he said because of the lack of loss of pereaneal sensation, there is no way it can be a spinal cause.
I have a neurogenic bladder due to a tethered spinal cord that was fixed with surgery, I have difficulty reaching orgasm. Could this be related?

Hey everybody,
I'm 18 years old, male, no family history of any urology problems, and seemingly in a healthy medical condition. I do get anxious about my health, so bear with me.
Since a year and a half ago I've been experiencing a variety of urinary problems. Perhaps I made them worse by worrying and thinking too much about them, but I know I have a basis. They include feelings of incomplete voiding, bouts of frequency, occasional hesitation, etc. (these are the big 3).
It was not untill I was 31 that I learned that I have a neurogenic bladder. The problem that I have is that I cannot completely empty my bladder at times. This was determined after a urodynamics test. As a result I self cath several times a day. I used to come down with infections every 3 to 4 months requiring hospitalization. Self cathing has cut the infection rate down.
I'm not suggesting that this is what your son has, but it's better to get him checked.
