What Causes Frequent Urination And Urge Incontinence?

I was examined for a prolapsed bladder on Tuesday, discussed a sacralcolpoplasty and was given Premarin vaginal cream and a medication to help with the urgency and frequency. ( have not taken the medicine yet as I need a prior authorization for both). I have since not been able to sleep due to frequency and inability to empty my bladder. I am up to the bathroom as frequent as each hour, can t seem to empty my bladder and am sitting on the toilet dribbling and have never had this problem prior to the exam. Yesterday I had a urinalysis at the local lab to see if I have a UTI. All my symptoms and discomfort have increased one hundred fold since the examination. Is it possible the exam has done this?
