Thanks for answering. Your story sounds just like mine. I too, didn't make it to restroom in time and was also on period, and since that day, my anxiety is making the urgency issues worse. I think being on your period makes it worse too. I've been taking immodium on days when I know I need to be in good shape. If I'm at home or work, then I don't take it. Only when I don't know if a restroom will be around. I stopped Citracel, as I thought this might be causing more urgency, but been off for a couple weeks and still had urgency today. I went to an MD today, who tries to go all natural and not just issue prescriptions. He is having me do a stool test for good/bad flora/yeast count. It is $149, so I am going to do it, just to see what comes back. I'm also going on a food elimination diet starting this weekend for four weeks to see if elminiating all sorts of stuff will make me feel better. I follow Heather's diet pretty close, but I too, don't follow it the T. He also gave me another probitic to try, it's called Proboulardi by Metagenics. I start this after the stool test is done. If none of this works in the next month, I'll go to my GI doc and ask for same meds your on to see if I can stabilize. Thanks for sharing your info, it really helps! I'll let you know if any of this stuff works for me.
