Hello, just wondering if there are any sleevers who have had issues not being able to urinate? I ended up going to the ER early this morning because I was so uncomfortable. I don't know what could have brought it on, and they tell me I don't have a uti, I'm not dehydrated, so they strapped me up with a portable catheter and sent me home. I'm to see my Dr. Tomorrow who did my sleeve surgery. Thanks in advance for any info.

I saw someone on here mention that directly after surgery some of the drugs she was on had caused that problem, are you any medications? Could they be the culprit?

I had it right after surgery. But my catheter was out after a week. It might be related to a drug you are taking. I would HIGHLY recommend you go to a urologist, not your surgeon. The surgeon will most likely not know much about it. When I saw the urologist they were extremely helpful. Are you still taking pain meds?

No longer on pain Meds. My surgeon sent me for x-rays and I had a stool blockage in my colon, I ended up going to suppositories and Miralax route before getting relief. The NP recommended I continue using the Miralax daily and culturelle to help with this.
