Hi Trisha. I have the same problem. I was going as many as twenty times in a 24 hr
period. I am currently waiting to see a specialist to see if the endo has spread
to my bladder. Until then my dr has put me on Oxytrol for overactive bladder. It
is a patch and is supposed to have less side effects than the pills. So far it is
working pretty well. I still have times when I go pretty frequently but not nearly
as bad as before. It's a relief to sometimes sleep through the night. You might
want to check into this since, like me, you don't have pain when you "go". Good
luck. Linda
