I finally got tired enough of all this, and read a few things, and
decided I had an over active bladder. I called my neurologist,
described my symptoms, and he prescribed oxybutynin. Now, incontinence
can have many causes, including infection, loss of estrogen with
menopause, anatomical changes after childbirth, and so should be
carefully evaluated. My point is, talk about it with your neurologist
or primary care provider because medications may help. Yesterday I was
able to go 4-5 hours between voidings and didn't have that annoying
dampness. I woke up after a full night's rest, dry.
Lord knows, I'm not eager to take any more pills than I already do; and
I hate to sound like a commercial; and this is really somewhat
embarrassing to talk about; but this really did help.
Oxybutynin=ditropan for those of you out there with your drug books.
Have a great day!
Sam, waiting for the snow
