Can cerebral meningitis cause long-term urinary issues?
Hello I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to discuss some ongoing health concerns that have persisted since I experienced cerebral meningitis a few years ago. Initially, the treatment process faced challenges, leading to subsequent neurological issues. Although most aspects of my health have improved, I continue to grapple with a specific matter related to urinary and bowel control. Following the meningitis treatment, I encountered difficulty using the restroom, leading to the use of a catheter for approximately three weeks. Subsequently, once the catheter was removed, I experienced challenges in retaining urine, necessitating the use of diapers, particularly during the night. Presently, after five years, while I have achieved some improvement in urinary control, there are instances, especially during the night, when I still face issues with involuntary urination. Additionally, I find it challenging to maintain control over bowel movements. There is a correlation between retaining urine and the urge to defecate, often resulting in occasional accidents. This situation has led to a degree of stress, particularly when venturing outside. I am reaching out to seek your expert advice on whether these issues may be treatable or if there are potential avenues for improvement. Your insights and recommendations regarding any further evaluations or treatments would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to your guidance on managing and addressing these persistent challenges. Sincerely,
Dr. Gurneet Sawhney
