@dorisena Has your pcp checked your B-12 levels? Also, vitamin D is very important.
@dorisena I understand your concerns. When I was first doing water aerobic classes I could barely make it to the toilets in the locker room but I went for Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy and that has helped a lot.
Fortunately our locker room is quite clean and there are rubber rugs for any water to go through so it is not slippery. My usual routine is after I get out of the water I take a shower, put on my underwear, and then relax for a short time in the sauna. I do not do the hot tubs, I am afraid of UTIs. In the process of doing all of that I do make a number of trips to the toilets. I find that I am pretty good in the water but after I get out I need to "go" a number of times. Apparently there is a physical reason for that.
You are right, instructors can vary a lot. Right now my health club has almost all good instructors. I don't care for the Monday morning one, but I like all of the others and they give a good work-out.
