I am 54 and in excellent physical health (bodybuilder). My blood work is all excellent except for an elevated PSA. I have been under the care of one of the best urologists in the country and he follows me closely. I have some slight urinary retention of about 150cc and he is not worried. He says the prostate is slightly enlarged because of my age.
8 Months ago I wet the bed and thought it was an isolated incident. I drink about 100 oz water a day from 6am until 6pm. My urologist and I felt it was the prostate medication, Uroxutrol, which relaxes things to allow for better flow so he stopped the med. Didn't work. He then prescribed Desmopressin which did not work.
It began as a weekly incident and then became daily over a couple months. I started wearing a pad. Also, I tend to leak a little during the day during physical activity. Not a lot and can mostly catch it.
The UI happens when I am sleeping or if I dose off in the evening when chilling with the wife.
I see my urologist on Nov 15 for an exam and Cytoscopy.
Anyone experience this?
