I don't know why over active bladder is tied to fibro. As it isn't bad enough to suffer like we do, why am I now peeing every 5 minutes. Oh and with this change of season, I now have a cold. If I cough or sneeze I pee. This happened to me when I had a flare last year but it had stopped. I don't know why it's back. I don't know what to do! Need help!

I sometimes watch my niece. She is still new to potty training so I pack an extra set of clothes just in case but today I was the one who had an accident and didn't have a change of clothes. Wanted to cry. Didn't let her know but left quickly after.is anyone else going through this? What do you do? Meds, supplements diapers? So humiliated.

    I have to pee every 5mins to and it's so frustrating. I don't wet myself when I cough or anything I really hope that's not next for me. I get new symptoms every week. I hope it goes away soon xx

      Wen gave great advice about standing up amd then sitting back down, as well as avoiding soda.I followed her advice. I didn't have any soda today and I switched my medicine. And magically the incontinence stopped. Made it the entire day without an accident. Still going a lot but at least it's not in my pants! Woo hoo!
