@awolfe, does your dad have what is referred to as an atonic bladder, sometimes called a flaccid or acontractile bladder, refers to a bladder whose muscles don’t fully contract.

Sorry! I didn’t realize I had gotten a reply..
Here’s what is in the urologist’s notes:
Decreased bladder capacity with decreased bladder compliance. Some increased eletromyographic activity of the bladder. The bladder did also show hypocontractility. Sphincteric weakness was confirmed with significant urinary leakage with bladder filling.

If there is any help for your dad it will be at MAYO. They are fantastic! I went to Minneapolis, Minnesota to Dr Wymer. You would need a referral from your primary care Dr.
