@beachgirl13 I have retention and trouble emptying bladder. This implant has been brought up a few times over the years. I am so scepticle, hoping to learn a lot from real live people living this as I am! I dont understand at all how this will work for me, does it give off a little "buzz" when my bladder has a certain amount of urine to cue me to go? If thats all it does it won't work for me, it would have to make my muscles that help contract and empty work and I think mine are shot from years and years of holding my urine when I was a little girl. My mom punished me so severely for having accidents, she had an easy time with 3 sisters before me and I think I just wasn't ready to train. I was too young to understand getting in trouble for urinating in my pants-just equated urinating with being punished and turned to holding my urine to avoid getting in trouble...pretty sad story. Hope we can share stories and situations to help figure out what to do.
