Thanks Trudy:
That's interesting. It may bear further looking into. Although, there has never been much, if any, pain associated with the problem.Hi Clayton:
I'm glad to hear that you have found relief from the misery SA/SP can bring into one's life. I am not bothered by it much (notice I said much.) any more. While I was younger, it brought much grief into mine. I'm now 60 and have finally adapted to it, or at least have come to terms with it. I live my life as I see fit. I enjoy it. It is interesting. But it is alone. So be it. It's what I'm comfortable with.I will probably not look further into medications. Best of luck guy. I hope your good fortune continues.
Hi sadmom:
Not likely that the SA itself caused the urinary disfunction. It existed before the SA/SP manifested itself. More likely that the urinary disfunction fueled the SA/SP. While it is an anxiety disorder the primary result for me was high stress levels due to forcing myself to acomplish interactions with others, sometimes never ending stress.I don't need any more medication for the urinary disorder. It's fixed. I just want to know how and why!
Hi zeugma:
Now that's interesting. It brings up the thought that it may have abated the urinary dysfunction symptoms enough for me to finish eliminating them all myself.
What's odd about it is that I didn't fully realize that there was a change untill several week after I stopped taking the Paxil. AND, they have never come back!!! If anything, my urinations are becoming more relaxed with time. I find it difficult to believe that the medication was directly responsible for the change. My feeling is that it was a vehicle for the change. Does that make sense to anyone?
