  • Hello Jean, 

    Welcome to the forum and I'm sorry about the delay in responding to your post. 

    How are you feeling? Have you been to see your GP since you've been unable to control your urine? 

    If you haven't please do go and see them as soon as you are able to, to get this checked out. 

    Let us know how you get on when you're feeling up to it. 

    Best wishes,

  • I had my right kidney & left Adrenal gland removed 2 1/2 years ago but 6 months after my operation I kept wetting myself not being able to stop it at all, I went to my gp several times , with no help my Bach cage got worse so I spoke to my surgeon and he advised some test, eventually I had a small operation to hold my bladder wall up since then I have not wet myself so good luck with yours. I am only 45 so I was very worried at the time I even had to wear a Cather at home for 4 weeks it got so bad before my op, so there is hope. Please get it checked thou to be on the safe side .
