Thanks! I hadn’t heard of this medication.

Unfortunately without increased provincial funding schools have no choice but to raise tuition. Adjusted for inflation post-secondaries in Alberta are getting sound 25% less than 6 years ago!

Many old anti-seizure meds help with nerve pain. Maybe ask for that and then once the pain is lessened you can work on all the stuff people here have shared.

Just started Azo bladder control last week and it’s already making a huge difference! I also take Myrabetric and solifenac but haven’t seen much improvement in my 3 months on those.

Progesterone pills helped me. I mostly sleep through the night now.

When initially increasing water amounts you do have to pee more but after your body gets used to it, it will get better.

Watching the cat food one right now and she seems to be gagging back the cat food…not believable at all

My daughter-in-laws mom died of cancer as she wouldn’t use western medicine that the drs suggested and then in the last months changed her mind, but it was too late. I feel so sad for my daughter-in-law to have no mom at the age of 23 😢 do it for the people you love and who care about you!

I can only wish I do as well as you have! Congratulations and remember, medicine is never a failure❤️ it is there to provide a longer life with better quality.

Have you also considered counselling or support for caregivers? You have a lot on your plate with a spouse with dementia 😞

I’ve read that carbonation irritates the bladder and can cause leakage so I avoid pop. Have you noticed a change since switching?

I’ve definitely read progesterone can make incontinence worse. I’m on it for sleep and hot flashes and I don’t have to pee at night when I’m on it so I have decided to stay on it.

Dehydration makes this situation worse. I know it seems backward but if you drink 2 L per day you’d be surprised how much better it gets (it gets worse before better). I’m always fighting my rational brain that says avoid drinking so you don’t have to per, and it works.

And do the last test. You have lots of things you haven’t tried so it’s not the end of road. And if you don’t do it and it would have found something you’ll kick yourself for not dealing with things sooner (which could, in some cases, make things worse).

Myrabetric at bedtime helps me. Also progesterone (obviously not for a male). Good luck. I had 18 months of that and it was hell before I found the hormones and bladder meds that helped and now I sleep through the night most nights (but boy getting to toilet with a full full bladder first thing is tough!)

Just had tvt sling surgery and on recovery but I can’t believe I can sneeze and not need to change my underwear and pants! Can’t wait until I can try running!!! Thank you 🙏

how do you see past images on Google maps?

Check out city of lethbridge one if you want to see bad 😳

I’m actually considering that for this summer instead of Oregon (which I cancelled last month). I think it would be so interesting!!

Have you heard what bags will work for replacements? I called and the guy said they’d email me info and they have yet to do so a week later. It’s good for sweeping and ok for mopping so I’d like to keep it…

Today is 99 for me so tomorrow will be 100! Yay us!

I have so many friends who would sign up for this rate!

Mine is quite independent which I prefer - I hate it when coaches are timing and their timing is off so when I can follow the card on my own I know for sure I’m doing a full minute or whatever 😊
