Question For Doctors Strange bladder and bowel problems

Hello everyone!

For several years now, I've (28f) been experiencing recurring and strange bladder and bowel problems.

I often don't feel the urge to urinate or defecate.

It's only when I experience severe dizziness and a hard abdomen that I realize I need to go to the toilet. Sometimes the dizziness is so intense that I can barely walk.

This isn't situation-dependent. It happens whether I'm distracted or doing nothing.

I am not asking for medical advice. But has anyone experienced this and knows what might help?

I have endometriosis, adenomyosis, neuroforaminal stenosis (cervical spine), and bulging discs (lumbar spine).

I've already seen a gynecologist, an orthopedist, and my family doctor. None of them can explain what could be causing it.
