Increase in urination

[shelleys goal 23]

Has anyone experienced an increase in urination? I am a 5th grade teacher and I have a history of overactive bladder but really had it under control before surgery. (without meds) But since surgery I've had to go so much but mainly it's the sense of urgency. I can't keep leaving students alone for this.

One of the conditions that I had prior to surgery was frequent urination. Generally I woke up once per hour during the night to use the restroom. This condition went away shortly after I had RNY gastric bypass surgery 3 years ago. So my experience is the opposite of yours.

One of the requirements of gastric bypass surgery is to meet your daily Fluid requirements. So I may actually be taking in more fluids than I did prior to surgery.

I am turning 68 years old this month and the problem of frequent urination is generally an age related problem.

Thanks for the input! My ketones are really high and I have clinical anxiety so I'm wondering if that could be causing it. I'm going to a urologist soon..

Offhand, one of the symptoms of a Urinary Tract Infection is frequent urination. http://www.webmd.com/women/guide/your-guide-urinary-tract-infections#1

Actually I have decreased urination. I get my 64 ounces everyday and do not go as often.

Increased urination is also a symptom of diabetes. Go to a doctor and find out for sure.
