Constipation, bedwetting and disimpactation - I Need HELP

Hi all, 

I am new here. I am a 15 year old female. This may be a long one but any help or advice would be well appreciated. 

I will start of with bedwetting. I have been bedwetting for a long as I can remember and it is not getting any easier/better. I have been to the doctors so many times and they just say she will grow out of it. Well I am 15 and I still haven’t grown out of it. I currently wear nappies every night to bed and have to change in the middle of the night as they get so full. I don’t know what else to do - please leave any advice or tips that you have used or anything would do in my position. 

I will talk about constipation next as it is kind of related. I have chronic constipation which the doctors think causes my bedwetting as my bladder can’t deal with the pressure. I went for my monthly check up in the doctors (I have these every month to check on my constipation and so it doesn’t get really bad) however I had missed last months appointment and so they hadn’t checked me out. I went about 5 days ago and explained to the doctor when they asked me if I had been regular I said no and that I hadn’t gone in 6-7 days. He went on to feel my stomach and it was like a rock - like I am badly constipated. I am now doing disimpactation and am on day 4 and far nothing has happened not a single leak or not of poo has come of me at all and I mean nothing. Normally I would have passed something on day 2 and it would just keep on coming (sorry if TMI) until I got to a watery poo, but nothing this time. I am starting to get worried - is this normal, has anyone else experienced this? Should I wear nappies for when it does happen to help with the messes? If anyone has any advice or any help what so ever please let me know. I am starting to greatly worry.
