Hi
I am 33 year old woman, who thinks that she might have this problem as when I was born I had a small hole just above the tailbone. I have always had problems with my back especially the lower back. I have developed Fibromyalgia since the age of 9. I have also have had a weak bladder most of my life, byt in the last 2 or 3 years I have started to lose the control of the bladder and also the bowels. I am waiting to have some tests done on the bladder. I have been told that the problem that affects the bladder is called Refklex Bladder, which means that my brain and bladder dont communicate anymore.
What would you suggest I do, as I am worried that my Doctor will think I am time waister. When I have the tests done on the bladder I will ask if that could this be linked to Spina Bidifa Occulta.
