HELP! When i drink fluids i am constantly having to empty my bladder. I drink a lot of fluids and there after am going to the bathroom, i go and i have to go again within 5 minutes and again and again. I stop drinking fluids about 530pm so I wont be going all night. I had issues with my bladder going back about 10 years ago and had surgery. Dont remember the name of surgery. Could GBS made my issue worse, what should i ask my doc?

You should talk about your problem with your surgeon and PCP.
The bypass has nothing to do with this, unless the surgeon accidentally nicked the nerve that controls bladder movments, but I think this is highly unlikely.
It's probably the amount of water you are getting in, beckamarie started a thread about the same thing a couple of weeks ago, with the title that ran something like feeling like pregnant. So, your issue seems to be common enough.
However, since you had bladder surgery in the past, it's safer to ask your drs what they think.
