You are 100% correct! I actually texted through my Health app to my Doctor Who told me to get to the emergency room. The unfortunate thing is the emergency room was packed since it was right before Christmas. I was pretty low down on the triage list, so instead of waiting, I went home to try to deal with it myself. I knew the constipation was why I wasn’t able to urinate, so I figured I could deal with it on my own. Unfortunately, it took me another full day before anything happened.

Sometimes a warm bath helps to relax the muscles. You can even do abdominal massages to help the constipation (UTube). Sounds unsanitary, but I’ve gotten so desperate I’ve actually peed in the tub! Just shower after, obviously.
