drug stopped working after seeing my neurologist last week he prescribed desmopressin spray to stop me waking every 2/3 hours at night to pass water. First night brilliant slept till 7.00 a.m. but last night every 3 hours, anyone else experienced this?

I have this problem as well, I thought it may be down to the hernia I had, but 2 weeks after surgery to correct it, I still have the problem, and have had it for the past 3 years, I am just "living with it ", but seeing this post, I will ask the doctor about it :-)
