Peeing issues: EBRT and urgency

Funny how this stuff changes your life and then you sort of get used to it. I'm now in my 8th month of doublet therapy with quarterly injections of Lupron and daily doses of Erleada, and most nights I'm up 3-4 times to pee. It's a minor annoyance, and I'm usually able to go right back to sleep after I go. Since I'm 83 it's hard to tell how much of this is due to the meds and how much is due to being a codger with weak bladder control. Started on daddy diapers about two years ago. Before then I couldn't imagine myself wearing them, but again, you learn to go with the flow. Pun intended.

Gemtesa and Myrbetriq help with urgency and incontinence. I started using Myrbetriq About nine months ago because of an incontinence problem and waking up multiple times at night thinking I had to go when I knew I didn’t. Now, at the most, I get up one time a night. It used to be three or four times.

Ask your urologist about getting one of these drugs, And whether It could work for you.
