dotcrawl2020 Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Hello As the title says I wish to ask to yours about a thing that I do not consider normal, the past year I started to have certain problems with nighttime continence, before at night haven't had to wake up 1 to 2 times to pee but small amounts only if doesn't do that I get uncomfortable pain, besides that can't get in long trips without a diaper on , because I get my bladder full and a pain that only get out when void some and before that doesn't happened that , the worse thing is that have talked about this with my doctor but just said that should limit my fluids intake but it's absurd because if do that couldn't take my nighttime medications. My question is, this is normal? should I get worried or get appointment with a urologists? Best regards Dotcrawl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Davis Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 The phrase "limiting hour fluid intake" permits you to take medications with a small amount of water. Don't skip your meds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dotcrawl2020 Posted March 15 Author Share Posted March 15 lol are 5 differents stuffs to take so an small amount of water not really, so i have not followed that suggestion of limit fluids,but still the night urges to get right away to restroom and other times a post dribbling later of end to pee which cause me sometimes change of pajamas on the middle of the night. is just turning into a problem and was wondering if might be getting started to slowly get incontinence? best regards dotcrawl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slomo Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 I'm really surprised by his response. You should never limit your water intake, and doing so can and will lead to a whole host of new problems. Heck, most any doctor will tell you to drink about 3 liters of fluids per day. And unfortunately yes, it is common to develop continence problems as we age. Especially in men over 40 as the prostrate enlarges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inconinmiss Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 It sounds like you are concerned about the issues that you raise. In such a situation, I think it's wise to see a doctor about the matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, for the time, no one was talking about those types of issues. I also had early onset BPH. If you need to deal with a prostrate reduction (from impacting the Urethra, and then also the bladder, from the bladder wall thickening and strengthening due to the blockage, you may already be a bit late in getting things corrected. If you can get the BPH issue handled prior to the bladder wall changes, it will be better in the long term..... For me, I have had the Rezūm procedure done. Personally, I recommend finding a Urologist that can perform a minimally evasive procedure and has a (good) record of doing the procedure. I am not a fan of the drugs that get prescribed in order to try to delay the (in my opinion) eventually needed procedure. Best wishes.
