I have been having issues with my back and numbness in leg. This has been going on since sept 2021. We have tried steroids, chiro, and pt with no relief and pain actuallly getting worse. So 2 weeks ago I ended up in ER from the pain and they basically my gave me pain killers and said follow up with my doc. What took me to the er was numbness along the entire left side from hip to foot and I was having issues with all of a sudden my bladder going from 0 to 1000 in like secs. So the dr got me in to get mri which shows l4/l5 herniated disk, arthritis of the spine and a cyst sitting on the base of spinal cord which was the reason for bladder issues they think. So now I’m waiting on appt with spinal specialist to see what the next steps are. Well fast forward to 5 days later and now I am losing the battle with my bladder when I sleep. I took a nap and woke up wet so i talked to my wife and she said I think you may need some sort of protection. I have been lurking here for years and new what protection I wanted I have north shore mega max and better dry now and they are wet every morning and just about anytime I nap. Never thought I would be wearing diapers at 46 and using a wheelchair. I do hope it’s temporary but my wife is so supportive and could not ask for a better cheerleader through all of this .
