I got the stress pee blues........
I am a younger nursing home resident with a small problem. Strong emotion seems to make me incontinent. Even a sad song can set it off (which is a bit of a problem as I grew up with blues & murder ballads, which I still love today).
One of the other residents parked his own wheelchair in front of mine when he knew I was dying to relieve myself, & seemed to find the resulting fallout really funny. Staff are, by & large, good, & prompt but there's always the odd nurse who finds someone's trips to the smallest room far too frequent, & that someone usually tends to be me. I've an en-suite bathroom too, there's a stack of books there (I take THAT LONG)
Grew up with various pets & I know they can be incontinent when stressed but never heard of that happening to a human. Certain clothes make it worse too. I'm on Sanctura but all it does is give me headaches & make my mouth feel like someone's laid a carpet in it. Anyone got any natural remedies to suggest??
