Bladder on 'red alert' query

I get short notice of needing to pee sometimes, and when my bladder 'alarm' starts going off, it seem to send the rest of my MS symptoms a bit crazy, I was just wondering what other peoples experiences were?
@Becks

similar lots of urgency etc - i'm on slow release oxybutnin which buys me a teeny bit more time. more recently found that instead of having the 'usual' feeling of wanting the loo i generally starting feeling unwell all over without the 'i want to go to the loo signal' and then i found if i have a pee i feel better again - bizarre!!

Evening Gav - Yea I used to have "need to pee and need to pee now" situations fairly regularly. I had a sleeve gastrectomy which meant I have dropped over 7 stone in weight, and this has helped my MS symptoms something fantastic - and now the need to pee symptoms are much more manageable, along with fatigue too - still there, but much better... I think the overall weight drop has helped me a heck of a lot overall. Have a good one mate. Si.
