← Return to Post Covid/Long Covid: Anyone else experienced bladder issues?

I’ve had bladder issues since Oct 21. I noticed I woke up every night having to pee, and then it has kept getting worse. I constantly have to go, even tho there’s barely anything in there, both day and night, and I have really bad bladder pain, like it’s gonna explode.

Never had similar issues before, tho since June I have noticed it takes a little longer to empty my bladder than usual. That’s all.

Urine sample for infection came back negative.

I got Covid on Oct 1st. I have some post covid symptoms such as palpitations (ecg looked normal) and head ache. I’ve heard of Covid Bladder. Could that be it? Or related to my heart symptoms?

I also took one (just one) pill of Cytotek orally for stomach ulcer recently which gave me terrible cramps in my uterus, and my period looked very weird (even tho I’m on the pill). Could Cytotek have affected the bladder as well?

(I’m now on 20mg omeprazol instead for the ulcer.)

I should mention I suspect I’ve had mild endometrioses for 20 years, in case this makes a difference.

Also tapering off Diazepam atm. Was on 5mg and am now on 2,75mg. Could it be a withdrawal symptom?

Very worried about IC (chronic bladder pain).

Any thoughts?

Hi, I’m so sorry to hear this! My mum is now going through the same thing and drs don’t know what it is. Did you ever get any answers? Did you find anything helped improve this or are you still suffering with the same problems?
