    I don't but there are many things that could cause it from allergies or an intolerance if its eating certain foods that triggers it, to a water infection to all manner of other things. Its doubtful its bladder cancer but see your dr for peace of mind.

    don't drink a lot of anything liquid before you go to bed. Try to drink water in small sips throughout day. I know harder to do than say. Stop eating spicy foods and see what happens. Keep us posted.

    If your bladder is irritated certain food and drink items can cause the need to pee a lot. You may have a urinary tract infection.

    They are very common for all ages.

    Did the doctor mention that?

    Generally a regime of amoxycilian (sp?) of 3 days will knock it out.

      Yeah coffee is a diuretic so could definitely could be contributing to needing to pee more. Hope it works itself out x
