    Hi there I actually have the opposite effect, I had a large mass pressing on everything including my bladder so if it got to full especially in the night or morning it would just run out ant there was no way i could stop it.

    I lived with a towel next to the bed and if i was quick enough could pop it between my legs to stop the trail of pee.

    At work i was a member of the Tena family, but always had to keep a change of clothing.

    Sitting couldn't empty m my bladder properly so i had a female pee bottle in the bathroom. Looking at it now i dont know why it didn't take me to the dr.

    Suspected appendicitis did but that turned into a complete other story.

    I have now got to retrain my bladder and go to the loo religiously every 2-3 hrs and no more accidents.

    I'm only 2 weeks post op and was cut from belly button to pubic area to get the growths and everything else out, so am just starting to mobilize a little more and can get up from bed without crying with pain.

    Which way was your op done?

    Hope you get sorted out soon xx

      hiya..hope you are feeling a little better..I had a total hysterectomy but through keyhole surgery..said my womb was plastered against my bladder so I reckon they damaged some nerves.. maybe another op which is not wat i want..i hope you will improve and take it easy.xx
