Good Morning!

Good Man @MDT Hams

Hope your day goes okay

Sounds like you're going places. Congrats w new govt

Need to build a jail for outgoing one lol

@MDT hey Hamsolo, so good to see you doing well. Take care

Just in from my W.A.L.K. TAB told me to take something for my nocturnal urination having to get up at night to pee. I researched some brands based on customer reviews on Amazon and can now say I slept through the night without waking up on this supplement. My daytime bladder frequency is also reduced which is a relief, it has not been like this in quite a number of years. If I needed to go somewhere new would have to be near toilets in the area. The joys of ageing! My Dad had this problem himself and would map out his journeys by car to see if toilets were along the way lol. I'm the same.We used to have a bit of a laugh over it together he had good humor but he took it in his stride. I miss my old man ❤️ Was told by GP was a sign of ageing and gave no solutions just told me I would have to recognise its part of getting older. Had a friend that used to wear incontinence pants as well as incontinence sheeting on her bed. She was like this at my age. Its so undignifying lol. Oh well all you young ones have THIS to look forward to!

One of the medicatiions Im on Im alergic to, makes my legs/feet retain fluid, heaps of it. So Im on another medication, higher dose than normal to get rid of the fluid. Added to that I when I got Bladder Cancer I also got OAB, I was 42 and using nappy type thing. After testing etc I got the OAB diagnosis and put on meds, but not PBS so like $90 a month. But it does stop me peeing myself in public.

I dont tend to wake due to needing the loo anymore, currently Im waking due to trauma and/or pain. I was waking 5 or 6 times a night, generally once or twice now but Im up for about an hour or so each time.

Yes I was on a psych med that caused fluid retention (oedema) in my legs and it also left me out of breath. Was having liver function tests every few months with it. My GP told me my bladder was a sign of old age and wouldn't prescribe anything for it. Don't think I could afford $90/month for bladder meds anyway @ClockFace. With trauma I had to find ways of releasing it from my mind and body. Its a tricky topic as therapists struggle to find ways of treating it.

Hi @Former-Member pleased you have this issue under control.

You have a great sense of humour when it comes to such things.

About to do some walking shortly. Have a good day 🙂.

Enjoy your W.A.L.K. @Former-Member !

Sounds rough @ClockFace I feel like a hypochondriac after reading that

@TAB

LOL

So many times I have been called a hypocondriact. I have a lot going on and Im actually getting a good team around me. But more than that Im proving those who called me hypocondriact wrong.

People are sick far more often than they are a hypocontriact
