Are you confirming once TMS solves the problem, the muscles will be able to relax and go back to normal? Are you a doctor? I ask because I never thought about this, so now I have one new worry :-(

I see you have gratitude. Me too. I am still very grateful for what I have.

Correct. I am very happy to hear you lead a normal life now and so sorry you had to go through this.

The bladder surgery didn't help - it was TMS that stopped your symptoms? I also had bladder and prostate surgery - a Trans Urethral Incision of the prostate (TUIP) in 2019 - didn't help the emptying. Bladder diverticulectomy surgery 2000 - to cut away and repair the ballooning out area (the...

My urologist stated it was my pelvic muscles tightening and I am pretty sure that is what I also feel. You do not need to convince me it is TMS :-). From early 2015 on when my urologist told me I manifest stress in my pelvic muscles, I believed it. The only difference was I didn't know the label...

That is what I am doing now. But no one has replied to my initial post that I cannot find one post here about success with TMS with bladder emptying and pelvic muscle stress. Would help a lot if I knew others with my symptoms were helped with TMS - as I was with my back pain 15 yrs back and...

I found a ultrasound study from about 20 yrs ago - my prostate size listed as 38g. I had an MRI in late Jan of this year - it also stated 38g,. so it appears it didn't change at all in 20 yrs, so presume prostate is not the issue.

============================================== Miffy - as to your reply: Not correct in my case because I have had several bladder sonograms that show I retain about 150-200 cc during the day. At the request of my urologist, I purchased a measured container and kept an overnight diary of...

Thank you for your reply. Did you have problems emptying completely and therefore kept awakening at night to use the bathroom? I wish I could find some cases like mine, but they are not on this site, which I think they would be if they existed, don't you?

I checked your link - there is not even a subject for pelvic or bladder. As mentioned, I searched this site plus google and see absolutely no search results for bladder emptying and TMS.

I need to restrict my liquids intake or I usually awaken more, though not always. Is this a guess or have you seen those with bladder emptying problems getting better by drinking more?

I suffer with the inability to completely empty my bladder since Nov 2014. In early 2015 a urologist diagnosed me with pelvic dysfunction. I was told I manifest stress in my pelvic area that tightens these muscles which is why I cannot empty completely. I awaken 3 to 8 times every night, so I...
