Default urodynamics testing in the morning
Prior to the study I am supposed to measure how much I drink and pee throughout the day....

I think my measuring cup I had to buy specifically for this study is wrong! There is no way I am retaining that much water!

Although I had no idea how much water I actually consume throughout the day! I have had cotton mouth since before this bladder thing started.

So here is the problem: Today I consumed 76 oz of fluid. according to the cup... I only released 15 oz.... This leaves 61 oz floating around in there.. which is a little over 7.6 cups! Obviously this number is wrong. I don't think wonderwoman could hold 7 cups in!

Looks like we are going in blind!

Good luck with the test...and I hope you're not correct about how much liquid you're retaining. Yikes!

How much can a bladder hold? In Ounces please, mg too scientific & medical for me to get. My water comes in OZs. I have difficulty starting, maybe I'm retaining. You're suppose to drink 8 x 8ozs a day but not keep in bladder all together I think. Time to Google bladder, I'll be back.

leggz,

good luck with your testing.
i've had it done. it's not painful. just a lot of measuring and different positions happening.

let us know what they say.
