Himmler. There has been a study and this was their..... Conclusion: This systematic controlled study confirms that fibromyalgia is associated with overactive bladder symptoms. The relatively high prevalence of 93% indicates that overactive bladder is an important urological association of fibromyalgia and should be routinely assessed in these patients.

Fibromyalgia shouldn't be causing incontinence, but the presence of one neurological disorder means it wouldn't be surprising if another neurological issue was at play. Talk to whoever you see for your fibro, they can order imaging or refer you to someone who can

I’m not sure if it’s linked, but I have the same issue. Currently being evaluated by a Urogynocologist.

they said it was IBS ( Irritable Bladder Syndrom) I think it's the fybromialgia or something else. This is not normal.
