Is it normal to keep a very light headache that meds dont seem to help with? I get to feeling like I have a weight on my head and my head gets top heavy......
Also, I have went from one extreme to the other with urinating. Used to, I had to pee all the time. The urologist had me to start cathing twice a day.... Now I am totally cath dependant. I can go all day and not have to pee. I couldnt pee normal if I wanted to. I am now cathing every five hours till I can get back to the uro... Is this normal, can they fix this? I cant go fishing with my friends if I have to cath on the boat???LOL!!!

MS does change things and you have to find a way to cope with what is up with you physically. I'm sorry the cath thing has turned into a permanent situation!

Many MSers change from retention to incontinence or the other way around. From all I know, retention is the easier problem to deal with. Cathing is a pain, but its better than peeing in the grocery store! I know someone who has that trouble--without even feeling it

I have retention too. If you have a good uro you are in the best place for their help.

Good luck with all of this!
