Yesterday I kept feeling like I had to pee but couldn’t. I was also dealing with fecal incontinance. I felt like I had to pee but couldn’t. I called the doctor’s office. The did a catheter and removed 800 ccs of urine. They did the same thing at the ER- almost as many ccs as the first time. They are running a D. Dimer test which tells them if you have blood clots. I wasn’t having any dizziness, light headed mess and my lungs are clear. My pulse was 133 and my blood pressure was 100 something over one hundred something. Finally it’s down to a normal level.
This is very similar to what happened a few months ago. That time I couldn’t pee still so they sent me home with a catheter in place. I hope they don’t want to do that again. Along with the painfull bladder etc I also had been having diarrhea that would fill up a pad in a matter of minutes! I’m not having and of that now but I was at the drs office. Trying to pee I managed to push so hard that I gave myself hemorrhoids. Anyway I’m going to have to follow up with my primary doctor. I’m not sure but I think I’ll have a follow up with my primary doctor. __________________ Wellbutrin XL 300 mg Loxapine 50mg Ingrezza 80 mg Propranolol 20 mg 2x/day Mania (December 2023) Mixed episode/Hypomania (September 2023) Depression, Anxiety and Intrusive thoughts (September 2021) Depression & Psychosis (July/August 2021) Mania (April/May 2019) |

It’s probably a med thing. Called an anticholingeric effect. I get it whenever I’m on more than one antipsychotic, high doses of an antipsychotic, or an antipsychotic and another med with the same effect like cogentin.

Oh, Moose, that sounds awful. I hope they figure out what is going on soon and that you start feeling better.

I was peeing and pooping but i figured out it was the potassium i was taking with my diuretic. My dr was like, take it anyway. He probably wasnt even born yet when i was first prescribed the potassium so uh no.
I hope they figure it out soon, moose. |

That sucks.
Do you think it's the Ingrezza? I hope they figure out what's going on soon. That sounds awful. 🫂 __________________ The darkest of nights is followed by the brightest of days. |

They decided it was the Loxapine. They send me home with a catheter in place. My cat is crying to come in the bedroom but she has a bad habit of chewing all things plastic and my catheter and bag are all plastic.

(((Moose72)))
What is the decision about taking Loxapine? Will you continue to take it, or will the doc switch you to something else? |
