@denkea I have had weak bladder issue years before prostate removal. I have to go pee I need to be really close. Go outside alot. stop along the road. It got so bad I would carry a gatorade bottle in my truck. When I finally went in to check it they found cancer in the biopsy. I am thinking if I install the AUS and still have the same problem with a weak bladder then what? Seems it might be good on certain occasions to lock the AUS open and wear the bag. Probably a dumb thought. I know there are medications but my gut just does not process meds well.

@tuckerp
First I would check with your doc about overactive bladder medications. TROSPIUM ER and SOLIFENACIN are just two.
Second.
If I have major urge to pee I can't until I release the AUS.
I was using a penile clamp and still going through 4 or more heavy pads a day along with the clamp.
Now I know everyone is different and some still have minor leakage after AUS but I use a drip and dribble pad and at the end of the day I can't tell if it's even been needed at all. HTH
