Has anybody else encountered a relapse of incontinence, it's been almost a full year since nightly incontinence now it's back with a vengeance. I am currently enjoying very minimal effects otherwise, so far. Feeling fortunate for that. The first round several week ago I had a couple day as well and then it went away, hopefully happens again.

Dr. Google

Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) include dysuria and motor and sensory nerve dysfunction in the urethra. LUTS are divided into storage symptoms, such as frequency, nocturia, and urinary incontinence; voiding symptoms, such as hesitancy and straining; and post-voiding symptoms, such as residual urine sensation and postvoid dribbling [6]. A previous study reported that more than 70% of patients who received chemotherapy complained of LUTS, and LUTS may continue for months or even several years after chemotherapy [7,8]. LUTS have been associated with cancer treatment methods and the duration of disease after cancer diagnosis [8]. It has been reported that 68% of patients receiving chemotherapy complained of nocturia [9], and that 37.0% of cancer survivors showed urinary incontinence, but only 19.2% of them had received treatment [10].

Good Luck, Good Health and Good Humor.
