Hello to you. I have the same problem but not continuous. I have had
more than one prostate infection in the past and it has left me with
urges from time to time where I don't feel safe without a diaper. I
am a male 34 and I don't need the world knowing I wear a diaper in
public. I have found that the generic brand sold at Walmart accually
absorbs more and is thinner than alot of the really expensive ones.
Just thought that may help espesially if you're on a budget. Good
luck, R.S.

You may try Angel Fluff Diaper Company, they carry contured as well as pull-ons, & will make them to order as well. If you are trying to save money, get a pair of non-stretch cotton briefs of the correct size, take it apart at the seams, duplicate the measurements and add appropriate padding, add velcro closures, or just stitch them back up. [add the required additional fabric to enclose the padding, and since they are non-stretch, a snap, button, or velcro closure at the waist]. Urge Incontinence is often more than just moderate, so plastic, or rubber pants will be needed for protection. Salk and Serenity brands are used for light to moderate wetting, cotton diapers, soaker-briefs, etc. are used for moderate to heavy wetting. If the individual is constantly in public, you may consider disposable pants or diapers, both available at Walmart, Target, K-Mart, Walgreens, Longs, etc.

Thank you.
I am new to this group. After reading some messengers from the members
I feel more calm. I still wet and have to use diapers every night.
I have been ashamed many times but I am not alone with all this.
I am norwegian and want to meet somebody to talk to.
The group AB/DL I have seen - I think that is a good group. I have
already met somebody, incontinent and not incontinent.
the one side effect I could not stand of the
Oxybutynin was the it dried my mouth and throut out so
bad i had a hard time swolling anything had to increas
fluid intake so much that the Oxybutynin did not work.

It's not clear whether this is a direct effect of Oxybutinin (which is a recognized side effect) or a drug interaction.
There are a couple of new drugs recently on the market that have fewer central nervous system (brain) side effects. These new drugs attach to the brain receptors less and bladder receptors more. They are Darifenacin (Enablex), Solfenacin (Vesicare) and Trospium Chloride (Sanctura). Perhaps your doctor can help you with a trial of any of these newer drugs, or a biofeedback program to increase bladder control.

Yeah, side effects like that of Oxybutynin? I'll say it simply so
as to avoid confusion. It made me stupid. I can't believe how
spaced out, absent minded, and dizzy I felt on this stuff. Not only
that, but cognitively, I was slower.
I had to think a lot harder and it took me longer to come up with
answers and solutions to things. After going off of it, it took me
almost a week to "de-stupify" myself and feel somewhat normal
again. Wow, I don't want to go through that again. Do you hear
this a lot Doctor, or could it be an interaction with a mild (100mg
twice) dose of Wellbutrin or Adderall (15 mg twice)?
Hello Everyone,
As a new member, I would like to take a moment to introduce myself
to the group. My name is Brad Porter. I am 29 years old and a
senior nursing student at Illinois Central College in Peoria, IL.
I'm graduating in May and excited about entering the field of
nursing. I'm interested in traveling and doing volunteer work as a
nurse once I have the resources to do so. I also earned my B.S. in
Biology from Purdue University in 1999.
I have been learning allot about the conservative management of
incontinence for the last several years during discussions with my
close friend Dr. Christoph Weismayer. He brought the Kegelxcel
pelvic floor exercise device to the market almost 3 years ago now.
In December after discussions with Christoph I decided to venture
into the business of incontinence as well, and I have started a
website that has the goal of objectively comparing all available
pelvic floor exercise devices and promoting noninvasive conservative
treatment of stress incontinence as the first-line of care. I would
appreciate anyone's feedback about the website and how to further
improve it. I am not trying to blatantly spam this group, but I do
want to get the word out about the site, offer my assistance, and
gain insight from the community on how to make the site better.
Please visit the site (listed below) when you have a chance and know
that I am more than happy to discuss incontinence issues with
everyone that sends me email or phones my fledgling company.
I look forward to offering assistance in anyway possible to the
group in the coming weeks, months, and years.
Best Regards,
Brad Porter

biofeedback could be very helpful, pelvic floor exercise. there are meds for this too but they may impact the bowels and have other side effects. Start with biofeedback or physiotherapy.

Hi,
I'm from southern california and I am looking for a brick and mortor
store that sells molicare super plus briefs. Does anyone know of one?
Having it delivered is not an option for me.
The best approach for fecal leakage is to get evaluated by either a gastroenterologist, or a colorectal surgeon, or both. There are many approaches to this problem from dietary changes, rectal irrigation (like a small enema before going out) or serious surgery. Find out the reason and you will learn the options.
Hi Mike. I am only 34 and can associate with your problem somewhat.
When I was only 19 I had a prostate infection. Thank God it was only
a temporary thing but it did leave some permanent side effects. When
I had this problem I would constantly have drainage from my penis,
urine and other. I usually tried using the men's guards from Depend
or other belted or self adhesive liners. They usually are more than
needed and don't stay in place when active. I found that the smallest
size bedpads seem to cover the most area and are all the absorbtion
needed without the whole world being able to see them. If it's not
hot weather, vynil pants with cheap underwear works well too.
I posted a message on groups.yahoo.com/group/incontinenceproducts/
about how someone should make a thin diaper, sort of the thickness of
bedpads, for people with these types of problems. Maybe you want to
go there and check the replies. RS.

I have found that tightness isn't as important as thickness. Do you use disposables? try a Depends Booster pad in the middle to absorb more... frankly, I've never had luck with disposables for my bedwetting... I sleep on my side alot, and "male parts" move around, causing leaks. I've been in cloth diapers and plastic pants for most of my 14 years of bedwetting. Also, with
cloth, you can make them as thick as needed.

There is really no need to worry about the bed wetting problem with all the advances in bladder control technology today. I would recommend you check out www.cnyurology.com-or talk to a doctor Bashar Omarbasha 315-363-8862 regarding the AMS800 Urinary control system. Also contact American medical systems, inc. 800 -328-3881.Dennis

Hi niuhuskie629,
I have been traveling and I was unable to post a reply so please
forgive my tardiness.
I became incontinent in 1996 or at least that is when the bedwetting
started. My wife, then of five years was very understanding, but I
was angry. Well, very angry, and I unfortunately let my anger be
expressed by being verbally abusive. I had tried condom catheters
and was excessively unhappy with the results. She suggested
diapers, and I went ballistic. I loved my wife however and sought
counseling. Perhaps that is what your husband should do. The first
time I wore a diaper to bed I leaked because I had no idea on how to
put it on. My wife helped me tighten it up the second night. At
the time I was using the depend overnights and the whole experience
was foreign to me. Her helping me get "diapered" really ticked me
off. I was mad because I wasn't looking for that kind of help. The
psychologist helped me get over the anger. When I finally stopped
being angry it got easier, it took about 6 months for me to come to
grips with it though. I couldn't understand what kept my wife from
leaving me because of how I treated her, of course at the time I
blamed our issues on the diapers, but she stuck it out, just like
you. You are very brave and very loving to hang in there, it shows
a lot of courage. My wife has found ways of helping me feel better
about the whole incontinence ordeal so if you or your husband would
like to email us just use this email for starters and we'd be happy
to help you and your husband through this difficult time. Even if
you'd like a woman's perspective she's offered to send you her
private email too. Just let us know. In the mean time we'll keep
you in our prayers.
Good Luck,
Mike aka jd_3rd@...

You could use Depend pull-on pants instead of diapers. Your husband could pull them on on his own and they shouldn't leak neither. Their texture make them more like ordinary underwear too. You can find them in any store.
Good luck !

Hopefully you and your husband have seen a doctor about this problem. DDAVP is a nasal spray that can reduce the output of urine while he sleeps and can help immeasurably with this problem. It is a nasal spray and safe enough for children. It is available by prescription. Hope it helps.
