i've been going thru urine incontinence 24/7 since my hip replacement surgery 3-26-07 until THREE DAYS AGO!. **************
i was going thru so many depends/poise pads, it was unbelievable. surgeon said they didn't know anything that something had happend to make me go full-time even in my sleep without any cognizance of it happening!
i went thru urodynamics study last fall; said it was BLADDER SPASM, and put me on ENABLEX RX MED! i thought they would say interstitial cytosis too, but they didn't?!
wow, did that make a difference immediately! ********************************************
also went to PT, and they showed me how to do KEGEL pelvic exercises correctly and to do them daily.
well, 3 days ago, i went all day without wetting' i made toilet each time! Thank you God. I've had a few misses; can't get my pants down fast enough! lol
so ask your dr. about getting ENABLEX rx meds; make sure you have no side effects w/other meds.

Yeah Betty. I know when I had some sick female parts removed 7 years ago, the doctor also repaired my bladder. I've never had to worry about laughing again.
