I have had this for sometime, at least 10 to 15 years. Even as a child, I had the bladder of a hamster and couldn't hold things as well as others (they used to call a little potty for me in the car when I was little). It got worse as I got heavier. There had always been some problems if I had alcohol and it is within the past 10 years that caffeine became a issue, it doesn't take much.

I think the sling is what I am going to get but not sure. I have to do the cath and fill the bladder through the cath test next month and then they will schedule me for the surgery. It will be so nice not have to deal with this issue.

That was one of the old doctor's excuses for not giving me the referrel, that no surgery was permanent. Who cares, give me 15 years relief, I'll deal with the next surgery when that time comes.
