1. Is your incontinence urinary, bowel, both, or neither?
Urinary, OAB
2. Are your diapers disposables (tab) , cloth, pull-ups, pads, combination (with percentage), or none?
disposable 95%, cloth, 5%
3. Is your incontinence due to an accident, illness, birth defect, child birth, other?
Possibly side effects of anti-depressants, not a firm diagnosis
4. Have you been treated by medical doctors for your incontinence? Tests, drugs, surgery, etc? Status?
Many tests. Many drugs. Stopped all drugs. Side effects. One painful surgery that did nothing.
5. Does your incontinence (only) limit you from living a full and happy life?
Not at all
6. Are you single, married, engaged, sharing your life with a partner? Children?
Married, 2 children, 3 dogs, a cat, lots of fish
7. Do your immediate family members and close friends aware of your incontinence? Generally accepting?
Wife knows/understands (she wears pads herself). She may have shared this with some of her girlfriends, but they have never said anything. As far as I know, nobody else knows except my doctor.
8. What part of the world do you reside?
USA- Left Coast
9. Do you find that this forum helps you deal with or manage your incontinence?
Very much
10. I can’t think of anything else to ask. What else would you like to add?
In my profession, I travel a lot. For years it was 75%, WFH the rest. Now, like everyone else I'm stuck at home and our dogs love it.
I can't tell if there is any derision in "Left Coast", or not.
I have to admit, it would be had I wrote it.
