Ha, we were having this conversation the other night. Training ourselves to not get out of bed to pee just because we woke up
Of course better to drink and go to the bathroom often than to not go at all (quote from my sis - the urologist)

I was hoping for commiseration, i am comfortable and satisfied with my doctors' diagnoses.

At the age of 61 I went to my doctor recently and told her i was tired of waking up 3 or 4 times a night to pee. She told me, stop getting up. I have learned that i can go back to sleep sometimes and now I don't usually get up to go more than 2 x a night.

I am in really good shape and enjoy good health. The fact is, my body is 61 years old whether I like it or not. We have to deal with the hand we are dealt.

thanks everyone for your thoughts.
