Exactly. My point to Rory was, asking someone who had a brain bleed at 32, causing neurogenic bladder, if their bladder was normal before, wouldn't help Rory, who has CP, and who's bladder was never normal, because his brain was never normal.Wondercrinkee said:Neurogenic Bladder Causes and Risk Factors
An illness or injury can affect the nerves and muscles in your urinary system. This includes your bladder and urethra. Conditions that might lead to neurogenic bladder include:
Some people have it when they’re born or shortly afterward. This can happen with:
- Multiple sclerosis (MS)
- Parkinson’s disease
- ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease)
- Alzheimer’s disease
- Encephalitis
- Learning disorders like ADHD
- A lack (deficiency) of vitamin B12
Neurogenic bladder may also happen with nerve damage (neuropathy) from:
- Spina bifida
- Sacral agenesis (parts of the lower spine missing)
- Cerebral palsy
- Stroke
- Infection or tumor in your brain or spinal cord
- Poison from heavy metals
- Spinal cord injury
- Pelvic surgery
- Vaginal childbirth
- Diabetes
- Long-term alcohol use
- A herniated disc
