Default You pee or don't you pee? That is my question.

With apologies to the bard...

But this is serious. What pattern does your bladder follow? Uniform thru the 24 hours? More at one part of the day than another? How about in relation to sinemet?

I really need to know because searching this forum seems to indicate that it is not a big problem for anyone but me and Laura. Can that be so?

It is a darned big problem for me. Every night I generate one to two liters and am up as many as a half dozen times. Since walking is so chancy I use a plastic urinal so am keenly aware.

When meds start to work, the bladder starts before the legs, so I have to be very careful as to when I go out. And if at home I am chained to the jug. It is a real drag on the QOL.

And I assumed that that was just a sinemet extra but now have doubts.
