My wife and I are considering a trip to Carribean and I hope to try Scuba again.

Does anyone know of any complication with Scuba, Depth and AUS devices?

I know every 33 ft = 1 atmosphere but can it cause problems, if you go too deep.

My thought is no, but never hurts to ask.

Thanks

I am an avid diver and have not heard of an issues. However just to be safe I would touch base with your urologist.
Was in Belize last year and dove The Blue Hole. Magnificent!
Where are you going?

We are probably going to Jamaica Negril.   Need to get recert and checked out but

won't do the 110 ft dives I did the first time - more like 30-50

It not as pretty as were you went but still neat.

Hey tvwohio,
Great question.
This issue was addressed a while back, in the thread called "Incontinence Physics question". Here is the discussion and answers. You're safe. The thread is also quite entertaining.
Enjoy,

That thread will go down as a classic.

I would just open it up and let it flow.. why not?!!! However, if you void your bladder before you dive, the pressure on the bladder will be less anyway,,
