hello all,

ive had a crap week- its a mix of pain in places that shouldnt hurt, lack of feeling and numbness or pins and needles in my hands and arms and the non stop twitching of my arms and legs.......

anyhow i need to ask a q..... i have found recently that when i need to wee, i cant hold it in and have accidents, nothing too embarressing but still!... does anyone else suffer from accidents like this? is it part of fibro??.... i have found i the last twelve months that my core muscles around my waist area arent as strong as they were..... mayb this is part of the prob?????

Hi cherry pie,

yes i do get embarrassing mishaps all the time now, like you its not bad or noticable to anyone but i do have to change my undies quite often and i always go to the toilet before i go anywhere just incase.

Also i think i have finished then when i stand up i actually havent and have to sit back down.

Yes I have a weak bladder and have much treatment in the past but it's still a problem. i was offered an op many years ago but refrained from that as they said I may not be able to pee at all. Good remedy hey?

Not what you're looking for?
