So my u-incontinence adventure started 3 years ago. I started using light shields but within a year switched to Abena and Tena pads. After a few nighttime leaks I started using Threaded Armor training pants at night or a pullup.
I've tried various meds and have had side effects. So no more meds and now more leaking. I've gone back and forth with pads and pullups. After a couple of leaks I made the decision to wear pullups full time. Yesterday I cleaned out the underwear drawer. That's a big step for me, no more back and forth. It's time to just accept where I am. Part of the problem with incontinence for me has been the variability in my incontinence and the mental heartache. Well, no more!
