what causes urinary retention with multiple myeloma?

Hi, the way they explained it in my dad's case was that the excess calcuim was blocking up his kidneys.  The calcium comes from the bones as the cancer erodes them.  The kidneys can't handle too much, so dialysis may be required at some point.

It's probably a urinary tract infection. It could involve your bladder, kidneys, etc... You do not want to let this go untreated. If your kidneys are involved, it could theoretically be life threatening. Even if they're not, you need antibiotics. Call and schedule an appointment with your doctor a.s.a.p., and in the meantime, drink plenty of water, urinate frequently, take cranberry pills, and avoid sugar. \n\nIncidentally, cranberry pills are better than cranberry juice because the juice has too much sugar in it, and sugar can aggravate a urinary tract infection. You can get cranberry pills in the section where vitamins are sold.

It must have something to do with your kidneys. Consult a doctor, you must be thinking derr...could have thought of that myself, but it's the most obvious and useful places. Also try Saw Palmetto capsules. It's for men with Prostate problems, but is good for urine control.

You have low bladder control, you should probably see a urologist, something serious could be causing it, otherwise there is medication you can take to help with that.

I think it would be bladder density,not intensity.It could be serious only if u have additional urinary complaints like Pain during passing urine or pain in areas of kidneys,or blood passing in urine(whether grossly  visible or just microscopic)or poor urinary stream,hasitensy in starting urine,urgency,more frequent urination particularly at night or loss of weight in previous few month,fever or urinary retention.If not such a case then don't worry.

water volume in your cells and thereby your tissues is at a higher than normal level.  so rather than the excess water leaving your body through urine, you are retaining it.  lack of adh can cause this, so can high salt intake etc.

Sounds like a urinary tract infection, or a kidney stone. You should probably get it checked out. Just to be sure.

Hello Porcelain,\n\nI checked a resource written by pharmacists and other medical professionals...\n\nhttp://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo/uspdi/202084.html#SXX19\n\nThere was no mention of water retention as a side effect.\nThis doesn't mean there is no relation between the two, it could\nbe very rare. Please check with your doctor or primary health care provider!\n\nWater retention, or endema, is generally not bad (unless it is in the lungs).  http://patients.uptodate.com/topic.asp?file=kidn_dis/4639\nHowever, whatever is causing the water retention should be addressed.  The cause of water retention can lead to problems in the kidney, heart, or liver.\n\nA doctor or health care provider can, by observation and ordering tests,  determine the cause of the water retention.  For example,\nblood or urine tests may be ordered  to check on the condition of the liver and kidney.\n\nAgain, I do not know if there is a relation between the two, or how serious it is.  Please consider this to be an aid in any discussion with your health care provider.\n\nHoping this helps some,\nJanice\n\nPS Feel free to email me if this answer doesn't make sense\nor if there are other questions.

undersized bladder? :)\nJust kiddin.\n\nBesides the urinary frequency, this also means your entire day and activities require the immediate availability of a restroom. I can't imagine how frustrating this can be. Please make sure you have been checked for the presence of diabetes, the first sign of which can be frequent urination accompanied by excessive thirst. \n\nBeyond this, my suspicion is that you have interstitial cystitis. This involves chronic inflammation of the bladder in addition to a decreased capacity that leads to urinary frequency and pelvic pain. This diagnosis requires the services of a urologist , who will need to visualize your bladder through a cytoscope. \n\nOther possibilities include a cystocele (also called fallen bladder), a condition due to weakened vaginal walls as a result of childbirth. I am also assuming that your doctor has done a pelvic examination and utlrasound if there was a suspicion of any abnormalities. \n\nSometimes physicians need to hear more directly whether the treatments we provide really work or not. I would suggest that the next time you see your doctor, let him or her know that the current approach is just not working. \n\n\nHope this helps. ^_^

It depends on your individual body and the amount of fluids you drink. Frequent urination is one sign of diabetes. Also, it is a symptom of an enlarged prostrate, a uninary problem or a number of medical reasons. Stress can cause frequent urination. Discuss this with your doctor and he will be able to determine if you have a medical condition.

you may have intersticial cystitis ask your doctor. make sure you eliminate after intercoarse and clean up i know it kind of takes away from the afterglow, but its better than all that pain, try to shower instead of bathing in things like calgon and smoking and other things like colas do have an affect on the urinary tract system.  if you cant pronounce it just write it down and tell the dr to check you for I.C. he should know what you are talking about or have him send you to a urologist, feel better! the other answerers have the right idea too! also ask him about polycystic kidney disease too, that one is just a shot in the dark, but may be worth it to make sure it doesnt appear in the future, im not trying to scare you... just ask good luck

If you drink 2 liters a day and it takes 25 minutes for your bladder to fill up. You should be visiting the bathroom twice or maybe abit more. Your body temperature also has role in emptying your bladder.And also if your diabetic you tend to lose more fluids rather quickly.Finally stop thinking about the bathroom,you  just might end up going there more often.\nP.S I don't even know what I am talking about

if you eat a lot of salty food, then you are more likely to retain water. salt retains water. Water retention, medically known as edema, can be caused by a number of factors, from normal shifts in body fluid to excess dietary sodium and diseases such as heart or kidney disease.

Talk to your physician.  Are you diabetic?  Frequent urination is also sign of diabetes.  Drink 8 glasses of water a day.  Saw Palmetto is good over-the-counter herb for urinary problems.  But get your physician's advice.
