Passing urine less often?
-
For a long time, I have always had to get up to pee at least 3 times a night, in addition to peeing regularly throughout the day.
But last night for the very first time I slept through without having to get up to pee and my first pee was only a tiny little bit. Then throughout today, I have hardly needed to pee and when I have it has only been a little bit. I haven't drunk any less during the past few days or today. My ankles aren't swollen though my belly feels a little swollen. I don't feel I have a UTI either as no pain when I do pee. I don't feel unwell either, just the odd little pains I get around my back - but that is usual for me.
I am just wondering why all of a sudden my pee 'timetable' has suddenly changed in a matter of 24 hours when I have been taking in the same amount of fluids

@hankie My suggestion is to check with a doctor regarding your urine stoppage. That is not normal. Hopefully, it is not backing up somewhere. It could possibly be a prostate problem. Or an infection.
Excess urine can be caused by caffeine which is a diuretic like Lasix. Sodas have caffeine as do some sports drinks.
The worse drinks for stages 3, 4, or 5 are sports drinks because they contain a lot of potassium and phosphorus products. These causes increase your kidney problems.
Hopefully, you will see a doctor soon. Good luck
