Possible infection?

I am 4 months post treatment, chemo and radiation and brachy (the standard lol).

But I am having a huge issue with what I think might be incontinence?

I called the docs but they are very booked up and an hour and a half drive.

They said they don't feel there is concern right now but then I got another call from them asking if my symptoms have increased at all and yes they have!

Most of the day I don't feel it, but then I go to pee and my pad/liner is full. But several times during the day too I will have trickles to gushes. Even if I just came from the bathroom.

Most of the time when I have to pee, I don't feel it until I really need to go.

Ever since diagnosis and treatment my lower back has been really sore, and I get a lot of sharp pains in my abdomen but nothing overly worse unless I push myself too much.

Would it be possible to have a bladder infection/UTI and not be able to tell? I don't have any kind of fever but I just feel really unwell in general.

There's no odor, the fluid has texture in the sense of discharge, but is yellow to dark orange.

I am waiting for doc to call back to see if I should go to a different physician closer to home in the meantime but just wondering about others experiences.

If you have dealt with this, did it feel different than it would before treatment?
