I suspect I may be developing OAB. At my doctor's request, I've been keeping a log of my bathroom trips on a daily basis for the past month, and have noticed a gradual uptick in frequency, starting with 6-7 at the beginning of the month, and progressing to 11-20 as time has gone on. I notice now that I will feel as if I have to go suddenly and not insignificantly, but when I go to the bathroom, there's hardly anything there, or I'll feel like I have to go minutes after I've already gone. I have IBS, and have also been tracking my bowel progress. It seems to fit a pattern with nothing at all for two days, then one solid BM and two leaks all on the third day. What would cause sudden-onset OAB in an otherwise-healthy young person? I've never had a history of bladder problems in the past, not even bedwetting as a child. I'm scheduled to see my doctor again next week, is this something I should be especially concerned about medically speaking? I'm already wearing 24/7 for the bowel leakage, which makes it easy to go when my bladder acts up. Should I be working harder to hold it?
