Hi, I have the above and have been wearing incontinence pads/pants for over 12 months. At the age of 75 I can't grumble The thing is I get urethra pain when I wee. The doctor tested my water and said no infection but my wee is quite acidy. I've been taking cranberry tablets which help a little but if anyone has or had the same as myself I'll welcome any advice. 😏😏
