I have had an overactive bladder for over 20 years and nothing has helped me then I moved to Sydney I’m originally from Melbourne in the meantime for the last 8months been seeing a Professor in urology. I take medication ie Betmiga I have a vaginal cream Ovestrin twice weekly I have to drink lots of water at least 1 Ltr or more if possible I’m 78 years old and my bladder drives me crazy. Has anyone any other ideas.

I am the same age you are, and I have to get up at night about every 3 hours. I will be seen by a pelvic floor physical therapist starting April 1st. I hope they can help me a little with getting a normal nights sleep.

I see that you drink lots of water. I wonder why that is -some say to cut back on fluid intake. Would you kindly explain the reason for
lots of water.
Thanks
