North East Wimmera district of Victoria. | A follow up to the post a few days ago about how often one gets up in the night, and discussions re off the shelf medications and CPAP breathing devices.
As the subject alludes - things have changed somewhat in the last few years.
I am not on either a CPAP machine, or any medication at all for 'holding my water' during the night.
I am not averse to having a hot drink of most likely hot tea in the half hour before going to bed.
Most nights I am then up to the toilet withing two hours, then sometimes I am up again about 5.00 am, but also quite often I make it until morning. Then as someone commented - don't get in my way!
I have regular blood test checkups for PSA - and I am told they are well within the normal range.
On the previous posts, one comment was to the effect that 'I have a good pump'.
So to my problem - a weak dribble, especially at any toilet visit after being asleep.
At 71 I figured this was just 'getting old'- but maybe I have a problem that should be checked!
What do you all reckon? |
