  1. Incontinent
I was at my neurologist today for ENG (Electroneurography) to check for differences to my last one in 2008.

Looks like i got L5-Syndrom from my back problems.

Just a question: Is anybody here with L5-Syndrom and incontinence? I personally think my main problem is the Dysautonomia, but i don't know, can a L5-Syndrom cause incontinence? The official stuff is very vague, so perhaps personal experience tops that?

I have pretty severe herniation and nerve impingement in my L5-S1. My urologist consulted with a spinal specialist and a neurologist and they claim this is not contributing to my incontinence. Maybe the fact that they had the conversation suggests that it is a possibility. Sorry I don't know more than that.

No expert, but have long had problems with the L5-S1 as a source of my communication issues between my brain and kidneys (Incontinence). I have a like problem with my Bladder, but the general belief is that that is more likely nerve damage from sewing my bladder back together.

In the long discussions with my medical team over the last 46 years I have not hear of the term L5-Syndrom.

Me neither, I've got Brown Sequard syndrom at L4-L5 since 2005, which definitely causes mu IC among other sequels. But I can' t help you more than that. Hope not too serious! And if it is, lots of courage. Cheers!

Thanks guys! I just realized my first diagnosis for Polyneuropathy was done with EMG not ENG, so it is not possible to compare the results.

The ENG and now newly diagnosed L5 Syndrome is more likely NOT to be the cause of my neurogenic bladder, only one Neuro-Urologist claimed that and he was an idiot, the Dysautonomia, Sjögrens Syndrome (suspected), and/or the autonomic Polyneuropathy (suspected) is much more likely the reason. Only when in pain from my hip or back the bladder control is much less, i think because i can not guess the urge in time.

That makes far more sense!
Now I have to look up L5 Syndrome!
Thanks for the updates!

Just stop causing your hip and back from hurting! :ROFLMAO: Good luck with that one!
 
Seit meinem Bandscheibenvorfall (L5/S1) habe ich vermehrte Probleme mit meiner Blase. Ich habe allerdings eine Vorschädigung der Nerven durch Diabetes.

Translation: "Since my herniated disc (L5/S1) I have had increased problems with my bladder. However, I have pre-existing nerve damage due to diabetes."
