Back in 2004 i was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. As the years went by, I went from occasional bedwetting to accidents during the day. As my disease progressed, I started losing bowel function as well as strength in my right leg. Now, as of the past 3 years, my bladder has become neurogenic, where i no longer have ANY sensations or "have to pee" warnings whatsoever. My internal sphincter remains open, because somewhere along the way, my brain no longer was able to send signals to it to close it. My urethra is also without sensation. So not only can i not tell when I have to GO pee, I can not tell when my urine exits my bladder either. i don't often know when i pee unless i feel warmth or a trickle down my skin. I still have limited sensation of my bowel, but only when im constipated. I have lost quite a bit of fine motor function in my fingers. I have trouble putting on or changing my own diapers because of that. I have a PCA come and see me for a few hours, 6 days a week but thats where my boyfriend comes in. I thought i would NEVER be able to meet any man who would accept my incontinence with open arms, until my boyfriend came along.
Sorry for all the rambling. See you around.
