Hi. Could anyone help me with my problems?
I am currently a 19 year old, but i havent
stopped bed wetting. Its like whenever i
fall into a deep sleep, without knowing,
my urine just flows out. I wet my bed
almost everytime i sleep comfortably. I
cant possibly sleep in discomfort, it'll
bring me lots of headache whenever my
sleep gets disrupted. please tell me whats
my problem? or what i should do..
.
thankz

Do you have any signs of an infections?
Have you mentioned this to your doctor?
There are a couple things you can try,
first stop drinking after 6 pm, do not
drink any caffeine as it can aggravate
your bladder also. The other is to see a
doctor, he/she can run some tests to see
if there's something more going with your
bladder/kidneys.
The doctor may also try medication to help
stop this such as Ditropan.

hmm.. what are the signs of infections, as
far as i think.. i doubt i have signs of
infection. Could it possibly jus be bad
habits? i'm totally stressed out abt it.
The day before i even wet my frens' bed.
i'm totally embarrassed now.
in addition, i heard medications are just
temporary. and i am afraid to go to the
doctors cause it may be costly.

Signs of infection can range from strong
urine odor, puss in your urine,
fever,chills,
burning when urinating, pain in your
abdomen and/or kidneys.
Everyone is different with the symptoms
they have.
Do you eat a lot chocolate or drink soda,
coffee or tea? These things can aggravate
the bladder.
Medications are temporary but it might
help until a doctor can figure out what is
going on.
Yes I agree it can be costly to see a
doctor. Do you have health insurance? If
not you can look into a clinic that offers
free or low cost testing.
What bad habits are referring to you?
Stress can also be a culprit.

thanks alot for the constant replies. i do
love chocolates, but i dont realli drink
coffee or tea. By the way, consuming
alcohol,to make me fall into deep sleep
does it actually help prevent bed wetting?
i feel stress only when staying overnight
at my fren's place.. and nope i dun have
any health insurance.

oh to add on, the symptoms u mentioned, i
dont have any. i feel irritated, i have to
use blankets instead of comforters/quilts
because wetting them means alot of washing
and cleaning to be done. even my mattress
are those without springs in them. its a
total shame and disgrace. sigh.

I do understand how you feel as this has
happened to me for a time also, even into
adulthood, but then again I have
kidney/urological problems.
I think it would be best if you contacted
a doctor to find out what is causing
this.
I don't think alcohol will help with bed
wetting, it will put you in a deep sleep
which only add to the bed wetting.
Take Care
Happy Holidays
