That's for that, guys. I'll be seeing the surgeon soon, but I get a feeling he won't want to install a sling or AUS for another year or so.

Had a phone meeting Thursday with the urologist that specializes in incontinence. I am only using one pad a day and she said I should not do a sling or other techniques (Bulkamid, aus or ProAct) until I am using a lot more pads a day.

With the number of pads you were using you really need to have something done, She would’ve immediately have recommended I do something If I were Doing what you have to do. She essentially said that while we were talking.

It doesn’t make sense that you wait another year to do something when you are having such a serious problem
