Frequent urination bouts

I'm still having bouts where I'll need to go pee more often. Been happening now for a few weeks. What's strange though is that this is intermittent. So I'll have three or more days maybe where I'm totally fine, normal urination, no urge etc. then suddenly the next day I'll have this bout where I'll go a few times in succession, like every 2 hours or so. During this time my pee is clear, almost white colour but what's bothering me is why this is happening randomly. I haven't changed my diet or fluid intake. Still no pain or burning or anything severe before or after peeing. Maybe it is what it is but it's really normal for me. Usually I'll only need to pee about 2-3 times for the entire day!

The doctor has no idea about this. It's not high blood sugar as I checked my bs during one of these bouts and it was normal. It could be the mirtazapine / remeron I'm on (15mg) but this is not a known side effect. It's not an infection or uti as 4 urinalysis have come back negative each time. Doctor not concerned about prostate issues, firstly due to my age and secondly because I'm not having any prostate related symptoms. 

So have no idea what to do apart from going back to doctor and requesting an urologist apt. God knows how long that will take. The only thing I could attribute it to is the remeron / mirtazapine but if these are side effects from that then I wasn't getting them when I started it 2 months ago.

      Hi Heather thanks for your input. I feel the same as you, I don't think it changes or has changed a great deal. In terms of my overall mood I'm the same. My doctor too suggested to go up to 30mg but like you I'm too scared to try it in case I get more side effects. So I'm going to just stop entirely which doctor said I can do if I wanted anyway as it's a reasonably low dose.

      Sorting slightly better but it's up and down and I suspect that could be the medication too.
