affects almost everyone who uses narcotics for pain. It just can't be avoided.
And if you are finding problems "controlling" impulses, the major cause of this in the elderly is spinal stenosis... called cauda equina syndrome.
It needs aggressive identification, so that damage is not permanent.
Sometimes people latch onto a diagnosis to explain new symptoms, when in fact something new is happening. I hope this is not true for you.
I am sorry you have this new problem. As we age, I am becoming very
aware of how the simple things in life we take for granted! Thanking God each day that you have normal bathroom visits, is not something young folks even think of.
