I've got a question about the symptoms of PFD.
On urodynamics my stream started, stopped then started again and I was only able to pee out about 1/2 of what was in my bladder. He poked around against some muscles and said they were tight and based on history, etc said he thinks I have some PFD along with my IC.
I asked him if the reason I always feel like I have to go is because there is always urine in my bladder along with my IC bladder not always liking a lot of urine. He said yes. So far, so good.
What I didn't ask him, but will when I see him again, is what I'd just like your input on. Are these muscles in spasms? Is it the spasm that gives me the feeling of needing to pee, whether there is any urine retained or not?
I am so confused. I am doing everything I am supposed to be doing (well, as best I can). Even when things don't improve, just understanding what is going on helps me.
Thanks for your takes/knowledge on this!
