She didn’t once say I was too young to be there, finally. They ran a bladder scan on me and gave me a 3 day journal thing to fill out of what I drink and when and how much I pee which is gross but what can you do I really want this thing figured out. When she was giving me my pelvic exam at one point she said she thought my bladder maybe felt enlarged, but she is doing the journal first to look for patterns.
That is crazy that Zoloft could have enlarged my bladder. It makes me want to take some sort of action but there is no way I could prove officially that Zoloft caused it so I guess I can’t. I know it did because I did a heavy amount of experimentation and eliminating factors to find that out. Anyways be careful with ya meds folks.
summary: Urologist took me seriously which was refreshing. She thought my bladder felt enlarged but wants to do a pee diary thing before proceeding further so that’s what I’m doing now. I’m mad that Zoloft did this to me and that I have had to put up with it so long because doctors did not take me seriously.
It’s so infuriating. I can’t believe no one believed me when I said the Zoloft caused long term damage. Clearly me not being able to void fully for the time I was on it caused my bladder to stretch. It says that there is no method to fix this once the bladder is permanently stretched.
Finally someone like me!! I am experiencing terrible pain when I try to sleep. I have been to two different urologists. After a year and half the second urologist determined my pain is from my schizophrenia meds.
I am having bladder problems. After testing me they determined my bladder is not emptying all the way so now I have to use catheters. The weird thing is I only have to use them when I experience this horrible pain when trying to sleep.
I have been trying different schizophrenia meds and when going on and off meds the pain increases and decreases. I have to take my meds because I have horrible experiences because of schizophrenia. But it hurts so bad, I can barely sleep… Hugs
Yes that’s how I was on Zoloft I had to quit it I couldn’t tolerate it. I am glad it didn’t get to the point where I needed a catheter. So sorry you experience that.
Doing fantastic. I haven’t been posting on here because there hasn’t been much to say. I really have no symptoms anymore. I’m just living my life spending time with my awesome boyfriend and getting ready for nursing school. I had my school’s orientation yesterday.
I have been taking schizophrenia meds for over 23 years and now it seems like all schizophrenia meds are causing this pain with bladder problems. Guess I just have to suffer.
