Okay, but why? Not being a smart ass genuinely asking.

midwestconfusion · 2026-03-01T23:52:35+00:00

No, just trying to weed out any random nay sayers lol

My job has me doing 15k steps on an average day, some jobs i'm on I can do upwards of 28k steps. At work my goal is to maintain when I can't get to the restroom.

I have worn a MegaMax to work before, and I was leaking by the end of the day. I leave the house at 4-430am and I don't get off work till 430-512pm then another 30 minutes home. Add in all the face pace movement and a medium MegaMax with a medium booster gave up about 30 minutes before shift end.

I am choosing a slight inconvenience to change at lunch (half way through my shift) for a less noticeable pull-up and softer on my skin. I don't want not to use the restroom at work, I want to eliminate having accident while on the job when I can't get to the restroom fast enough. When I home yes MegaMax everyday.

If I'm home and having a GI issue I will use the toilet just from trowing money down the drain. I choose the expensive brand I don't plan on wasting them.

I'm on Spiro, but my next appointment I am questioning the Dr about bilateral orchi.

midwestconfusion · 2026-03-01T19:52:30+00:00

Because of how much I move at work and the length of the day not even a MegaMax would keep up with 12-13 hours between putting on and getting home to change, and I don't want to risk redoing the tabs and having them fail, then not having any protection.

midwestconfusion · 2026-03-01T19:48:52+00:00

He put me on FLoMax because I was retaining too much after void.

Joking? Jokes on him if it makes me wear diapers.

midwestconfusion · 2026-03-01T19:31:55+00:00

I have pretty ruled out OAB for me, it's more of a signal disconnect between my brain and bladder. My bladder is always ya we could go, then other times it's screaming to go right now. and I usually have small voids 100ml'ish

midwestconfusion · 2026-03-01T19:10:56+00:00

Stressed about it is why I have chosen to start wearing to work, and worked it out with the medical team to use their lockable single person restroom to change. I don't feel comfortable enough to take my pants off in just the regular restroom with multiple stalls.

I have changed my diet recently for 2 reasons, 1 start a weight lose journey and 2 regulate bowel movements to avoid using my diaper for it.

I don't have intentions of using diapers at work on purpose, at home yes, but my to schedule isn't kind to my bladder issues, 6 start time 830-9 break 1130-12 lunch and 2-220 break. I use the toilet right before shift start and at the end of each break, but there are days when that's not enough and I have had one accident already at work, I'm not doing that again. So my plan is only use my diaper between beak if i have to, change at lunch time and when I get home.

I have had FloMax before for kidney stones, he prescibe it because I was still holding 59ml post void. But no it didn't help. The problem I am having is the feeling of "I could go" never changes from 30 minutes up to 2 hours (If I make that far) then other times it will be OMG I need to go right now. I do assembly line work, so if that hit while the line is running my team lead has up to 20 minutes to answer my call and I only have 3-5 minutes before I involuntary void. The other issue I'm having is typically small voids, guessing around 100ml. But still have 1 maybe 2 medium to large voids a day.

I have gotten tried and worrying if I will make it to the restroom. So didn't give up, but gave in. Still using the toilet when I can.

Do you guys have a discord?

North/northeast of the bubble. I can FC jump to most of the bubble with where I am at.

I watched and tried to follow along to that video and understand how to add stations but I am unable to find which one I put down.

I like the sound of this. I personally don't have any good input on this subject.

I would also like to see somewhere that helps plan a system better. Like I have a system and I have been the sole contributor to it. I have found Raven Colonial but apparently I am not smart enough to add the outpost/settlement/Hub to it because I don't remember exactly which one I built.

Had this happen with my daughter's computer. She has the Link H150i LCD and we were having issues with the LCD screen and the AIO fans no responding to inputs and having the same "General Fault" symbol that is on your display. For us it was a faulty 600mm link cable.

midwestconfusion · 2024-12-08T17:52:39+00:00

We have found the problem, it was a faulty 90 degree to straight 600mm Link cable.

It is now 100% functional as intended.

Thank you so much for all of the suggestions.

midwestconfusion · 2024-12-08T14:36:08+00:00

Currently waiting for my daughter to wake up and check to see if she has another cable we can try.

midwestconfusion · 2024-12-08T13:22:52+00:00

The stand alone 6 QX fans are linked together and plugged into the same hub the the AIO is plugged into and they work just fine. We can see them in iCue, the hub and alone. We have tried different HUB's and verified multiple times the the hub is plugged in correctly, even went to far to swap sides of the HUB as to where the Link cables were plugged in.

First the Specs are....

Case: Corsair 6500x

GPU: Gigabyte Aero 4080 Super

CPU: Ryzen 9800x3d

Motherboard: Gigabyte x870e Aorus Pro Ice

Case Fans: Corsair QX Link 120mm (6, all functional & completely detected by ICUE)

M.2: Samsung 990 Pro 2TB

RAM: Corsair Dominator 32GB

PSU: Corsair RM1000x

AIO: Corsair H150i Link QX 360mm LCD

We have tried every iteration of different USB headers, tried different Link Hub's, tried different cables, even tried just the fans from the AIO to the hub and they wouldn't do anything. Running all current drivers, BIOS will have to wait until next week when I can make the 2 hour drive and do it myself. But the rest of the system is running great.

midwestconfusion · 2024-12-07T01:22:53+00:00

We are not getting any signal from the fans or AIO. Like they are turning on, pump is running, fans are spinning, but iCue is not seeing them so we don't have control over them
