  1. Interesting how long Slomo and Iken are able to last without a change. I stay well hydrated and am a heavy wetter. I usually need to change at about 6 hours and rarely risk going longer than 7 ½ hours. However, on long car trips if I "diaper heavy" I usually can last for 12 hours. Otherwise my changing habits are similar to Scarth. --John

  2. Yes, of course - I usually ask my GP first. Maybe it's something special in Germany, but we have something called the "Hausärzte Programm." That's basically a program run by the health insurance companies, where the GP (or rather the specialist in general medicine, because you need a special qualification for that) takes on the role of coordinating doctor and suggests which specialist should be involved. One decides for a doctor who should take over this task and then stays with him. This is a good thing when you have found a good doctor, because he collects all the diagnoses, medications and recommendations of the specialists and can then see, for example, whether medications prescribed by different specialists may be contraindicated. In addition, he has a complete overview of the situation and can speed up the diagnosis, for example, by involving several specialists at the same time. In my case it was quite practical, because while the urologist with his BPH treatment did not really get further, I had neurological examinations and a referral to neurourology / neurochirogia from neurologists already after several MRI's, which then after the UD and a few other examinations also brought the corresponding depressing results. If I had waited for the urologist alone, it would probably have taken years and my back problem would probably have gotten worse.
