Has anyone ever heard of Seroquel causing urinary retention?
You know, I wish that I could answer that. I do take Seroquel at nite to help me to sleep especially since I take the ssri (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor) Prozac Weekly and that gives insomnia (and seroquel is supposed to also help a bit with ocd due to working on the neurotransmitter, dopamine), but I do also have 'irritable bladder' with or without Seroquel. I've had that for several years where it feels an urge to go to the bathroom but just a small amount is released. I presume that you noticed this after you started taking the Seroquel. Perhaps you can talk to your doctor about it. Your pharmacist may also be able to tell you if urinary retention is common amongst those that take it.
I had gone to a urologist, dr who specializes in the urinary system, for my symptoms of urgency and frequency and after some diagnostic tests, he determined that it was the irritable bladder. There is a test called a Urodynamic, sorta like an ultrasound that shows if the bladder is retaining urine. (

Pain in abdomen and urinary retention?
I have been having pain in my lower left abdomen and urine retention with no help from the ER. I went in last week and they drained 1 1/2 liter of urine after not urinating for 12 hours. I am in a lot of pain but they cant find anything wrong. I had a Hysterectomy (full) appendix and gallbladder removed all in the last year. The pain is sharp and comes and goes but when it comes its horrible. I am sure the ER docs think I am nutts but I know something is wrong. Ideas suggestions?
I am trying to get a referral to a uroligist but its gonna take some time :( I just dont know what to do till then.
Also I had a lot of blood in my urine but show no other evidence of a kidney stone.

I now have ovarian cancer and all my life have had probs with retention, found out from a urologist that I was born with a small ureathea, which at times have sat on on the pot got 5hrs and had to learn thru the so called top Dr that just sit, if needed pat your rear end and if it takes all nite then sit there, the main thing is to relax, or I have had to do is sit, sit and more sit all my life. I now know one prob and sorry the Med Prof has really gone down hill after training to be a Nurse, and seeing so much with Dr with no lic and now after 7yrs with a Dr taking for 4yrs my insurance $ and I kept asking him what is wrong with me, all I got was."Oh so confusing.'my god here after so many things kept getting worse and now I ordered the CT/IV with contrast and an MRI and find out I have lets see, a huge mass which grew from the adrenal gland which produces our hormones, to the ovary, then this urea prob from birth, and gall probs, diverticulitis, 5th stage edema and this Dr refused to give me water pills now I have morgellons not new disease but the parasites have had it for now over a yr have studied it and with over 10,000 calls a day to CDC, which is a epidemic, you wonder what is up with me ordering all this I finally now have scabs all over my body which I now have no one to help me, this Morgellons disease causes retention of urine, up all nite, muscle weakness, hair loss, intestines probs, bowels (My mom has that prob) and sorry got on the VM of Asso. Prof. Stricker, told him to quit telling every state its a fiber sorry why mo money, which the parasite also are alive in the eyes it loves humidty and have seen live ones, tho its a fiber lol oh really. sorry if its all about money and when I see the site and see that several from the itch, and pain from the bite when it goes into the body and it creates edema as well as loves skin or tissues. tho no one bothers to do a thing and every state, plus other countries has it except, the Bay Area in CA , Fl and Tx are boarder towns we have it the worses maybe thats why others still have never heard about it I wish now that I had never watched on Priimetime investigate report about this also on my news on my puter per reuters, so the hispanics which lol at us because why who knows they brought this into our country and not caring what race anyone is because China also brings it in by way of the export/import bus and everything from China has the so called parasite in the fibers.. I have asked so many when I had to leave my parents and my mom has this as well but no scabs, which some feel its DNA, Im about fed up and can't go to the hospital, till I clear up the scabs then I can lie and get treated, sorry just take out the Cancer is my main concern now, so I won't drop dead of cancer thank God for the Cancer So they have at least given me love and forget my mom she wants me to hit the road and I now wish I had never made the choice to come here to help her, which I had to leave for a month to head for a rest before surgery, biopsy and they aren't kidding the huge ones they lol at us and are called the jumping popcorn, which double bit me and when I left here I didn't have any bites but when I hit 3 seperate hotels in Fremont Ca and in the stores forget it , well seems like it can't be killed only controlled and sorry Im on a limited income with no help so you help yourself because thanks to a good friend now he went to another state but informed me and he is a govenment employee told me they lay eggs in our body, then they expell out he said, after much research on the puter that its also brought in by a cat or dog who likes to roll in the dirt and still you get news investigated reports one on FOX sister station in GA from a Dr and his wife and he thought she was nuts tho he feels not understanding its a parasite and not a fiber but bless his heart at least he let us know he has it now and it can be in a family where only 2 might get it and another one won't, go figure, as Im sick to death of this whole nitemere and I have now used with a bit of help not much, you have to spray daily either Raid garden and house pest spray and or borac acid is what the hispanic use but they never get bit, guess its my low immune system but if its not to late and I once beat Lupus because I have deep faith not any religion only prayer. I feel for the ones who are so young and cry because once you feel a bite well welcome to the Morgellons family. I will be glad to email a real live report from GA and this Dr on tape. I have seen them in just about the whole house and found that they love mold, dirt and they come out more at nite. Sure If I do make it out of all that the CT has said I now have and will mal-practice the Dr for taking the bucks but letting me suffer and gee pain pillls guess thats for the edema and I feel that at times, I still sit after getting it under control now for hrs because they will block your area that you have for the urine to come out, and at least Senator Diane Fien..,is awesome she ordered a full report from CDC they lied to her so its a snail mail to her per her La, CA office and I will be glad to start the first support group if I get to live. Some make fun like this male on this site who made fun and its not a joke when children get this soon just about everyone will get this for now why some well sorry Im not that educated as in a Prof here, the most important thing of all is having someone give you support at this time I got this in 2002 when it was out again, from a female who has scabs all over her face and gee if its been here since the yr 1600 ad then what in the world is anyone doing about this except if your not bit then gee its ok you can live your life but jump on over to the site and read on the morgellon research site there are real people there who I feel so bad some having this for 20yrs and who knows, it seems to me to also have some part to do with a fungus type prob, maybe as also now for the past 7yrs have had heavy abdomen pain daily and your not nuts head to another ER and keep on going to everyone, remember the one who makes the most noise get heard I have thrown fits and now finally get to head by way of a referral to the best of hospital and univeristy of med in Northern Ca. I will be glad to be here to try to help you being a Nurse Im right now tired of being the scientist when sorry Im the one who has to find the answer, but maybe yours is like what I have and its strange this parasite effects the bowels, urine, abdomen area, mild brain fog and you feel like you want to die. I can't but if I could now take my life after all this pain I would, but havin to answer to a higher power I choose to call God well I will keep you in my prayers ok? Hang in and if I come out ok and live you watch me go girl:) keep the faith remember God is in control and sorry Im not any religion only know that if I beat LUPUS when I was in my 20's I will beat this. I have no support Im on my own but in this all you develop strength you never knew you had. Im sorry get to some Internist and also a urologist ASAP, and if you don't like um keep on trying and trying by the way make sure to check out these Drs on the puter before you go its at times will tell you there track record. Heard that the Drs in Canada are heading this way boy are they in for a shock if they think there going to get more money.its what is more important and pls ask questions never let the ones in ER act rude to you report them, where its the worse get a Dr and build a relationship with him or her and who knows maybe soon you will be ok or at least find out more then you know by the way did the ER do a Cat Scan with IV contrast on you make them do it because it shows alot and that way you can go from there sad maybe some of what they have already done wasn't really needed Drs aren't perfect and need to show more bedside manner toward us we do pay or give our insurance. Sorry Im so tired and hope that maybe I will be lucky and head on to the pie in the sky on the operating table I already asked on here and some jerk male made fun out of being such a child but gave it back when he said, :Oh found a cure , I had a good lol and asked him," oh really then why not call CDC or the NHC in OK," sorry Im so tried and with no one to help can't drive and in pain 24/7 and up all nite except when I get an hr of sleep or they also like to crawl toward any kinds of foods, they sound like roaches but no its the fibers and skin. I hope somehow from this long post that maybe you got at least something from this and pls mail me if you want to keep it personal I have it seems all as in medical probs never give up. Im here if you need me ok? HUGS to you ... (

Can urinary retention be dangerous?
If I think I have urinary retention, should I see a doctor, or will I live if I just put up with it?
----------
It can be dangerous if it progresses from difficulty urinating to unable to urinate. It can also make bladder infections and UTIs more common. I would talk to a doctor about it, especially if there is no clear reason for retention.
This is an article I wrote about urinary retention, it is specifically about urinary retention after surgery, but I think you will find it helpful.

Can a warm/hot bath help with urinary retention?
I haven't been able to urinate all day (well just a small amount, not the normal amount). Before I go to the hospital, was wondering if heat, meaning relaxing in a bath would relax my bladder and make me go?

urinary retention after birth?
hi,i not realy sure on how to use this site but i hade my baby 16weeks ago and hade urinary retention for two weeks after,now i am feeling a constant need to pee i tink i maby retaining urine?
----------
You can find out easily at the doctor's office by having them do a scan of your bladder. They should be able to tell you if you're retaining urine and how much is in the bladder, all in a matter of minutes. They can also test for microorganisms (bacteria) and white blood cells in the urine also.
Urinary retention is common after a delivery, but you're quite a few months out from that. (

What causes urinary retention?
Urinary retention can be caused by mechanical factors, such as something blocking the urethra (scar tissue, stone, prostate in men), neurological factors (such as spinal cord problems), or medications. Here is a web site with a little more information about it:
