    hi louise

    i am exactly the same and have been for months. have you seen a dr and gotten medication? how many times are you going each day?

    do you find the urgency happens due to triggers like stress? eating? worse in the morning?

    i have some advice but it depends on the triggers.

    Best to take yourself to GP or hospital, you're inflamed and need to be treated
