I actually made a point of always visiting the doctor's office in a diaper when I started wearing 24/7, to convince myself that it was real and no matter what the risk of being seen was, I had to do it.

Now I always wear diapers to the doctor's office because I'm dependent on them, but one comes from the other.

You're dependent on them from continued use? Asking for clarification.

Never done this, but my general experience with doctors these days is they always ask if they spot a potential issue but don’t press it if you don’t want them to. I believe they’re trained that way: do their due diligence, but let the patient decide what they want to talk about.

Not always. Though personal experiences may vary.

I have seen many doctors in many specialities and in general medicine across several hospital (this is part of the "entertainment" of the collection of medical problems I have); when visiting for diagnostic purposes such as to run an MRI, CT, EEG, ENG, ECG, Ultrasound etc [I have experienced many tests] the doctors/medical staff performing those have never asked me why I am wearing.

For the avoidance of doubt, it is normally obvious. Getting me into an MRI for instance is quite a procedure as I use a powered wheelchair, which is obviously ferro-magnetic, hence I need to be transferred to an MRI wheelchair and then transferred onto the actual MRI machine; this involves much awkward movement for me and others and I tend to wear my jeans/trousers low and loose to avoid pressure on my spine and as a result they almost always move somewhat.

It is also rare for consultants and registrars to ask, unless I've been admitted quickly for something urgent and they even haven't received or haven't read all my notes. The only doctors who are likely to ask are random locum doctors at my GP practice or similar, despite having ready access to my notes.

I think many people underestimate how much crazy doctors see. My wife is a primary care provider... the anxiety, depression, and other mental health stuff she deals with at her job makes something like being ABDL seem pretty mild.

I've always taken the approach of lie to the cops, but never lie to your doctor. In that light, I have worn a diaper to every appointment I've been at for over 10 years now. And from day 1 i told my doc the truth - that i know it is wierd, but i wear diapers by choice. And it has never been an issue with her or any of the other specialists or providers I have seen. If it was, I'd find a new provider!

I think so much of it comes down to how you handle it. I don't get turned on by wearing to an appointment, it's not a thrill, I'm not pushing anything on anyone. It's just what I wear. I'm not afraid to talk about it if they had questions, and some have so we discussed it as needed.

I've recently been diagnosed with nocturia and OAB, so my doc and I talked about options and we both agreed to just skip trying drugs and just use my diapers to manage it. Being honest made that conversation easy.

It is worth noting that everyone is different, and I respect those who don't wear often, and would never wear to a doctor's office. If it makes you nervous and uncomfortable, don't do it.

 

 

Actually sometimes it is difficult to not lie to your doctor, depending on your situation; when I was first admitted for neuro investigation I denied until I could no longer speak that I was experiencing bladder incontinence despite the evidence being quite apparent - me laying there on a hospital bed with wet underwear while surrounded by the consultant and a registrar. I did find the whole situation humiliating. This probably did not help expedite my diagnosis though.

What's a depot injection?

Apologies if I have missed any points; many posts are showing truncated to me.

Depot is antipsychotic injection done monthly.

Ah, I understand. I do know someone who takes antipsychotics but I wasn't aware that period release injections existed for them.

A doctor seeing you in a diaper for the first time has a lot of options he or she may do.  They would be remiss in their job if they didn't ask you about it and if you were having issues.  From that moment is where they can do several things.  Ask you questions to get to the root of your problem for a couple reasons.  They genuanlly want to see if they can help you with your problem, but they also see it as a way to make more money by extra treatment, office visits and testing.  After all, the reason any of us work is to make money, period.  On the other hand, many doctor's have a tight schedual and while they do allow a little extra built in time on each appointment just in case, they might just as well ask a quick question about your diapers then go on to the original nature of your appointment to keep on schedual.  Most likely they would ask a few questions at that time and try to get you to schedual an additional appointment to discuss your bladder problems.  Each doctor is different but I can't imagine any doctor ignoring it if you showed up for an appointment wearing diapers that were visible to the doctor or nurse.

Last year at my annual physical my primary care physician matter-of-factly asked me if I was wearing a diaper and if I was abdl..  She said it wasn't the first time that she has seen it and didn't make me seem strange for doing so. She even offered me time to change when she was finished. ( I didn't need it but good to know!) I will NEVER switch doctors I don't think.

lets see i have small fiber neuropathy, diabetes and BPH.

all three can cause incontinence. so far i only have mild urge incontinence  if i can not find a restroom fast.

i have to travel between 70 and 130 miles to my doctors a lot on freeways.

i am traveling 70 miles for labs Monday  and need the extra protection so that i can give them a urine   sample, then shop around town while there so i will be wearing a thick diaper so i don't have to worry about finding a restroom.

i will also checking out thrift stores for diapers. and a heathcare store to get some more plastic pants.

I've been to the doctor and the hospital diapered. Also; at the dentist and everywhere else I go.... No big deal...

[rusty pins]

I have been to the dentist in diapers (discreetly).  In fact, I had about a 30 mile drive to a different dentist for a second opinion on a possible tooth extraction and knowing I had a drive to get there, the receptionist asked me if I had to use the bathroom.  I said, "No, I'm good!"  Difference for me was a dentist is not going to pull up your shirt in back to check your lungs and possibly expose a little diaper in doing so, or ask you to strip to your underwear for your exam.  If I was incontinent, 24/7 or didn't care who knew I wear diapers, I'm sure I would be wearing to doctor visits and I'm sure it would be in my records.  As it is, I wear occasionally a couple times a week at home or the rare times I go out of town for the day shopping or running errands.  I don't want or need anyone else to know I sometimes wear diapers, including my doctor.  If the time ever comes to where I actually need diapers, I'm sure they will be one of the first to know.  That said, I have wondered what it would be like sitting in a doctor's office stripped down to only your diaper with the nurse and doctor seeing you, but I'm sure they have seen other paitents in those situations.

I think the easiest explanation if you are ABDL would be that you wear diapers for comfort and security and inform the doctor that you do not suffer from any forms of incontinence.  This I would think would end all questions and needs for additional testing.

I do not have a regular doctor although it is probably time to find one.  I am not a pro-doctor kind of guy as I feel a lot of them intentionally troubleshoot the body too vaguely or are lackadaisical on their diagnosis.  

I go to the minute clinic when I am sick and you can go to a different provider everytime if you chose to.  My last visit was the first time I saw a doctor while diapered.  I had got ringworm on my hip due to my diapers no doubt and thought I had to be seen.  Interestingly enough the medicine given to me was OTC so I did not even need to see a doctor.  I wore plain white Rearz Inspires + Incontrol and white protective panties.  When asked to show her my ringworm  I simply pulled down the side of my diaper and panties and showed her.

Before she had checked me out I told her I have urge incontinence and stress incontinence and that I wear diapers for protection.  I am not sure if that is considered not to be truthful or not.  I definately have these issues now but that is because I have untrained myself.  Nothing more was asked and nothing more was said.

I wish I could find a doctor that would accept that I am an ABDL LG and that there would be no problems telling them the actual truth.  I thought maybe a doctor for the LGBT community may be a good option in my particular case as they have understanding for different lifestyles.

Similarly for my ENT.    Unless he's like that doctor in Scrubs who had everybody take their pants off (even to check them for conjunctivitis).

I had my annual physical 3 days ago and I purposely wore my most colorful diaper I have, Crinklz, and my new female doctor never batted an eye, made no comment, said absolutely nothing about the diaper or asked why I was wearing one. 

[Sailor Snow]

I would be to worried about potently having to explain to my doctor that i have a diaper fetish to actualy wear one when i go.
