My incontinence has been caused by 2 things.
Firsty at 13 I started having for at the time no apparrent reason, wetting accidents initially on the night, that then started to spread to during the day if I wasnt near a loo.
Went to see a Urologist and found out via urodynamics tests that I what is called an "overactive Bladder" and was told over time the wetting probs could get worse. Was told by my mid 40's - 50's I could be 24/7 inco
Anyways this was fair enough although having to go back into nappies on the night at 13 in boarding school was a bit daunting and prevoked a lot of teasing I made it through,
then in June 2005 I suffered a stroke that put me in hospital for several weeks !!. Pleased to say I have recovered pretty well from it all but one of the traits the stroke has left me with is Double incontinence, been told not to expect the control back, The stroke has put immense stress on the nervous system that sends the messages to the brain to tell me when I need the loo and with the overactive bladder on top of the problems as well im pretty stuffed. So unless I want wet and messy underwear my only choice is to wear and be in nappies 24 hours a day. 19 months on from the stroke and thats how I am in nappies all day every day and night as well. I can say that in general although hard at times I have adapted pretty well to being in nappies all the time, the only thing I still even though been this way for a while now find myself doing is kicking myself and feeling stupid for ending up with a poopy nappy, especially if out and about in public, it can be quite alarming when it happens. be out enjoying a afternoon in town and then feel my nappy squelching about where its full and having to cut my plans short to come home and change as stinky as rather annyoing but as a whole I get by.
Hope this Helps
