So, I kinda wanted to introduce myself, but also maybe get some input if anyone has a similar condition, or has any insight. My problems started when I was beat severely with a golf club, and left me bleeding from the penis and/or bladder pretty severely. That happened about 7 years ago in my early 20's. I then had a stricture for years, which caused me to strain, and get many UTI's. I eventually had the stricture stretched out, but somewhere in between, the doctors think I developed bladder-sphincter dyssynergia. Basically, my sphincter seizes up most of the time, with the same effects as a really bad stricture. All this obstruction, for some 7 years has had a negative effect on my bladder, to the point I literally have to piss 20-40 times a day, with extreme urgency, and very weak flow. It's also causing some kidney pain, due to reflux. I've been prescribed diapers and an alpha-blocker (yay V.A.), which helps some, but I still wear diapers all the time because I never know when my bladder is going to spasm (actually it's about every 10-30 minutes). I also believe the size of my bladder has become quite small, as I'm incapable of holding much urine, and passing/holding urine usually causes me quite a bit of pain.
Naturally I've researched the subject of dyssynergia a great deal, and one of the things I'm considering is getting a stent to prop my external sphincter open, so I can get off the alpha-blocker (because they drain my energy and make me light headed most of the day). I don't know of any other treatment short of a sphincterectomy to alleviate. This would make me void by reflex however, but I guess it would be better than the spasms, dribbling and reflux I experience now. Look forward to any thoughts or comments.
