I have to use the restroom very frequently (to urinate), and I am at the point where I am worried something more serious may be going on. It seems that if I drink a glass of water I will need to pee a gallon of it out. If I drink a bottle of water I will pee about 15 minutes later (and it is at the point where I can't hold it), and then 20 minutes later I will have to pee just as bad again. This may happen 3 or 4 more times even though it was only one bottle of water. Before bed I use the bathroom between 3 and 7 times making sure I am empty so I don't have to wake up at night. Unless I stop drinking at 7:00pm, and pee 3 times before bed, I won't make it through the night. If I do stop at 7:00pm I can at least hold it during the night (I will still have to go though). Now, this may seem off topic or unrelated, but perhaps there is a connection. My nails are very weak, they eaisly get white spots, they are brittle, and thing, and very very white (it looks like I have a french manicure 24/7). I have taken supplements, use nail hardners, etc etc etc, nothign helps. I did read that the type of nails I have have been linked to thyroid problems. If I may have some type of thyroid problem could that be linked to my bladder? It may sound crazy, but I always have to go badly. The second I even think about peeing I will have to within 5 minutes (and something will come out, it isn't just in my head). Do I just have a small bladder? or what?!
