What Causes Leakage In Urine While Coughing?

Hello dr. Well about a week ago during a nasty chestcold I noticed I was leaking urine while coughing and sometimes getting up off the sofa. Just thought it was due to my weight of 280lbs and I am 5'6" so didn't worry too much. A couple days later after sex with my husband it burned to pee and I started having bladder pain more frequent leakage and urgency to use the bathroom where it was hard to start to pee and never feels like I get it all out. So I have been on antibiotics for 2 days and still have symptoms. I am worried its not a bladder infection but something more serious like ms. I suffer from bad anxiety too and have in the past had strange sensations and some off balance issues which dr. Disnissed as anxiety and they went away. I guess my question is really can anxiety make leakage and bladder pain occur? Sometimes I will relax those muscles down there a little too much and urine will slip out but that's me causing it then right? I am a 26 year old female with no other health problems and this all just started out of the blue and its freaking me out. I am so obsessed with the worry of having ms I wonder if I created my own bladder problems because of it. Do you think this is entirely possible? Should I just assume its a harmless uti and give the meds time to work?? Thank you for your help!
