Hi everyone. I am new to this site. I am a 46 year old male from the UK.


I have suffered for many years with OAB, and bed wetting but until I met my second wife, did nothing about it. She accepted the fact that I wear a nappy to bed is very supportive and loving. She made me go to the doctor about the issue a few months ago. 


My day leaking is on the increase but still manageable but I am going to the toilet around 15 times a day.


I have an appointment tomorrow for a cystoscopy and I am really scared.


Any advice please?

I’m sure thinking about the procedure is intimidating, but hopefully the doctors can find out what is going on & get it corrected. Good luck & let me know how it goes!

Just back from hospital. It wasn't as bad as I thought and my bladder is all clear tg.
After effect is feeling like need to pee constantly and leaking a little so I asked the nurse if she could give me a nappy to wear so that I don't leak on the way home. She was really nice and understanding and got me a pad (they had no nappies) and told me that it would take 3-4 days for my bladder to calm down so I should use some protection for the next few days.
Now waiting for the next step in their prognosis....
Thanks for all your support
