I was on an Amtrak overnight train and woke up on my seat and I had peed myself.  Sat there in shock for many minutes then thought I had to let it dry so I could get out of my seat root through my suitcase for different clothes.  I did not even do this right after surgery.  I have not worn a pad since 8 weeks after surgery.  Anyone else have this issue so far down the road? 

Off HT for 5 weeks.  No Erection since surgery.  mad

I am nearly five years out from surgery and I am continent all the while even when coughing, sneezing or lifting heavier items. The passing of wind is a problem sometimes but I can live with that. But, on occasion, perhaps about 2-3 times a year I will have a dream where I am searching for a toilet, and when I find one I will start to relieve myself only to wake up with a start with a small wet patch in my pyjama bottoms.
I only have had these dreams since my operation and can only assume that it is a psychological thing, and that because of the weakened muscles I am not able to hold back when asleep. Thankfully I only lose about 2-3 small drops before I wake up and the muscles clamp up again.
I can live with this small problem though and I am thankfull that my blood tests continue to be clear.

All the best from England.

I go through 1-3 pads a day 4 years out from surgery, 3 from RT. Many days are 1 pad wasted, but the day I try to go without is a seat sopper.
