Sorry, I didn't wanted to sound rude, but that guy was way out of line.

@babybrian

Thanks, for your elaboration, yes my intention is to get information and to rule out anything serious diseases. My doctor put me on medication when I first revealed to him I was having problems. The medication didn't help, and it did cause some side effects which wasn't worth having, also since the medication didn't help me anyway, it was Detrusol.

Rob,

[How does your partner feel about your bedwetting?]

how on earth are you going to pee with a catheter in? isn't a catheter supposed to

1. drain your bladder?

2. Make sure that if there's something in your bladder, that goes inside the tube, not on the outside?

Sorry, but I'm not at all experienced with cathterers

It's great your wife is supportive, but her fears may be warranted. Have you discussed your wetting with a urologist? Trust me when I say it's great when you can choose to wear a diaper, but can be a real pain when it's forced onto you. Just because you like wearing a diaper shouldn't mean you should be embarrassed about them, especially when you legitimately need them and there is a chance your incontinence could be treated.

Advice from an old friend, but some of the best that was ever given to me: Never lie to your Doctor or Lawyer because they are on your side and without the truth, they cannot help you. You don't have to volunteer that you like diapers, that's not really relevant here, but getting the correct test results is. You cannot decide well what to do unless you know equally well what the situation is, and that is the point of the tests. The better the information you have is, the better you will be able to decide. Simple.

I'm aware of this, and no, I do not consider lying to my doctor. However from what I have heard about urodynamics, the tests might be so flawed, that they cannot come up with any firm conslusion on what's causing it. what's the most important for me, is to know, that nothing serious is wrong with me, that is cancer, diabetes, or something other serious decease.

Although my leaking is annoying I have learned to deal with it, and honestly, I don't see it as a big problem....don't get me wrong, I was in a pretty bad mood, when it started and the embarrassment of needing to wear protection did make me feel less of a man - there is a stigma to diapers, whether we like it or not. However my wife have been a great supporter, and although it does annoy her somewhat, mainly because my private parts aren't readily accessible as they used to - as she puts it, it's kinda turn-off for her, if she should open my diaper in order to have it her way. Besides this, she's still there for me and as said a great support.

What have casued your OAB?

[How does your partner feel about your bedwetting?]

My wife is supporting me, and does not get mad, if the bed get's wet stains, so when it all started she offered to go buy pull-ups for me, however they didn't work, and she told me that the farmatist had told her, that if pull-ups didn't work I had to use genuine diapers which I have used ever since, however as others have posted I think she fear that eventually I'll need diapers 24/7, although I wear them almost 24/7 now, I don't use them 24/7, I wear them for security and for situations where I cannot make it to the toilet.

The Detrusol I was prescribed, did cause some sideeffects I didn't like, like dry mouth, headache, had trouble focusing, the sideeffects from that single medication made me quit it rather fast. Told my doctor about it and he agreed that since it didn't do much, and given the sideeffects, there was no reason to continue taking it. Also my wife appreciated I stopped taking it, since she could notice a change in me from the medication.

My main concern is not to say I'm ok with diapers to the urologist, but more if the test results from the urodynamics will be inconclusive and I show up as a fake.

I already have had bloodtests done, which showed no signs of any diseases....I was worrying about diabetes was the reason for this.

Hi,

I have been dealing with bladder problems for quite some time now. It all started years ago, with slight dribbling after I urinated, you know wet spots in the underwear, which started to increase in size and wetness
