Hi is it just me but I find my health care examinations totally nerve - racking ? Yesterday I had a trip to the physiotherapist, this was in connection about arthritis in my knees. However whilst I was in the examination room they asked if they could look at my hips at the same time and would I mind taking my shorts down ? This i did very reluctantly because I was wearing a Tena slip diaper . I did explain this to the physiotherapist but I was told it would only take a few minutes and they know all about my incontinence problems which are all on my health records.
So I complied with the request and laid on the couch for the examination , all the time feeling very embarrassed . It only took five minutes or less but I was totally devastated about the experience . Whilst i was laying down having my knees and hip examined I wet myself , unfortunately that's what happens when you're incontinent. My Tena diaper was noticeably very wet . I feel sure the physiotherapist would have noticed this, in fact it would have been very difficult to miss
I still find my incontinence problems a total embarrassment after more than six years. I still find talking to Drs about my bladder problem very difficult.
Sorry just my rant, I know it wont make my incontinence problems go away but so what !! I find it good to let off steam occasionally . All the very best from me , rant over
