Re: Weak bladder?

Dear Vicki, . . you're not a teenager any more, try and drink at least twice what you were, you're bladder needs to adjust so this is probably why you need to get up during the night.

Re: Weak bladder?

I discovered no matter how much or how little I drink, I still get up a 4am every morning to go to the loo....

Re: Weak bladder?

I recently tried an experiment. I drank eight glasses of water during the day - this is about seven more than normal - just to see how many times I would be up in the night peeing.

It was the same as when I only drink a little.

Most odd.......

Re: Weak bladder?

That's good news Vicki - and that you managed 8 glasses of water too. I think if you manage to keep up the intake, you'll feel differently.

It is very common for people to be admitted to hospital in a very confused and agitated state due to kidney infection and after they have been rehydrated and the infection starts to clear, they are back to normal again. Especially important for diabetics.
