Thanks

Hi there & well done on your quit so far,could it be that you are drinking more water etc than before you quit,I had the same at the beginning & freaked myself out but after speaking with the nurse I realised that it was just drinking more making it more frequent,if you are concerned check it out with your doctor. Good luck on your quit & Nope.....

Congrats on being a 2 week winner.

Probably best to have a visit to your Doctor. Could be a number of reasons for the increased frequency of peeing.

Lots of links about more frequent peeing afterquitting smoking if you Google it.

This explains it very well............

Hi, I have been peeing more often, but like Lizze74 I have been drinking more, I think you do just to distract yourself from wanting a cig, I am on day 52 of not smoking, feeling really pleased with myself, although not been at all easy.

I understand the feeling . It 's just ugly one but I hope with time I will be better .

Sometime no much sleep. I control the drinking of water and all went well . but the feeling not that easy

I wouldn’t think that excessive urine was a problem from stopping smoking. I would get your dad to see his gp. Could be infection but most likely something to do with his prostrate. Better to be safe than sorry.
