thanks ill check it out
How do you wean off the medicine DDAVP? I've been taking this medicine for many years only to find out my tests say I don't need it (I had small injury to pituitary in brain). Unfortunately I find it almost impossible to wean off because it makes you go to the bathroom ALOT after the medicine ware's off! since it's an anti diuretic/water retaining pill! Confusing and tricky.
I was known for my bedwetting at ages 4 and up. For a couple of years, I had a dry spell. The bedwetting just stopped. Last year, I had one accident. But, in the recent months, and early this morning, I have wet the bed a couple of times. I'm embarrassed by this, and I have no clue why I continue to wet the bed. I'm worried about this, because I'll be going off to college in the fall, and I don't want this to continue on.
Whenever I wet the bed, I'm half asleep.
For my whole life, I have had problems with bedwetting; I wake up in the night and my bed is soaked with pee and it is not a matter of me being lazy. ( I do not have incontinence during the day). There are times when this problem has gotten better, but it has never completely gone away and has always been an issue that I worry about and am deeply embarrassed about and ashamed of. It has been especially bad recently (I wet the bed 3 times this week), and is making me feel depressed and hopeless.
i also developed some side effects when i was taking reglan for 2 weeks in october. anxiety at night WHILE i am asleep and bedwetting. not during the day. my eyes were also starting to hurt again but have slacked off since i have 3 weeks of the .5 dose going.
someone mentioned sleep apnea as the cause of the bedwetting. i have no specialists since i am now uninsured. i as unemployed for 9 months. anyone have any ideas or have had related problems?
Do you have problems with your sleep? Bedwetting or enuresis occurs 15% after the age of 3. This can be prevented by limiting liquids before bedtime or going to the bathroom before bedtime. If not, a visit to your doctor for proper evaluation and management or medications can help.
I hope this helps. Take care and keep us posted.
Have worn on on diapers with plastic pants my whole life for bedwetting. I was allowed to stop wearing at night when I entered high school but that opened a whole new problem. I was a nightly wetter and often more than once a night so I now had to deal with mid night floods, would cover it with a couple of towels, go back to sleep and soak again. I missed my diapers and went back to wearing them for good nights sleep.
Is your son a peaceful sleeper? Bedwetting can be a sleep disorder. We were very successful with a bedwetting program (quite expensive but we could pay it out ) in about a month, it was no longer an issue. I don't recall the name of the program, but look it up on the internet. If you can't find anything, leave me a message and I will do a little research for you.
Good luck and God bless.
I strongly recommend the book, Seven Steps to Nighttime Dryness, by Renee Mercer for all parents dealing with a child’s bedwetting. also the early chapter book for children, Prince Bravery and Grace – Attack of the Wet Knights by Gail Ann Gross. It is the story of a young prince who struggles with "the Wet Knights" and eventually defeats them by using an alarm.

My question is I have asked her endocrinologist to prescribe DDAVP for her to take during several camps she has this summer. He will not because of a chance she could have a seizure. I can't remember the exact reason but it does have to do with her diabetes and how DDAVP interact in a diabetic's body. He said the chance is very low, but possible. Could you give me your thoughts on a Type 1 diabetic using DDAVP.
I am a 60 year old male and have had a problem, over the last ten years, with bedwetting on an infrequent basis, maybe 1 or 2 times a month.
The occurences follow no particular pattern, can happen either with or without the consumption of alcohol.
Had this investigated at the beginning and consultant was unable to find a cause. Since then my prostate has become enlarged, benign, taking medication for this but still means getting up a couple of times a night.
Hello, I'm 26 and I had a non-secreting 3cm by 2cm macro adenoma removed from my pituitary about two years ago. Since then I have had regular MRI scans and Endo appointments. There was a small piece of the tumor left behind but six months ago I had a MRI and it had not grown since the MRI that was done post surgery. I am currently on 50 mcg levothyroxine and my endo told me all my other tests (six months ago also) were normal. Since surgery I have been extremely thirsty and urinating a lot.
Other treatment options are bladder volume training, bedwetting alarms and setting an alarm during the night at a random time in order to urinate. If still the symptoms persist then medical treatment with desmopressin, imipramine and anticholinergics can be tried.
Hope it helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing. Kind regards.
We have a 7 year old colllie just diagnosed with Diabetes Insipetes (nephrogenic). Vet recommends treatment with ddavp eye drop. All the information we can find says that this is "very expensive". Can you give us a ballpark of what this actually means for annual cost of care? What are the implications of leaving this untreated if she has on going access to fresh clean water?
Diabetic here, also suffer the bedwetting blues. When I advised my doc though she had be go through a "sleep test" (not sure what it was called). In any cased what was revealed was that I suffer Sleep Apnea and needed a CPAP machine. Apparently that was the problem. Without the CPAP I simply did not wake up during the night when I needed to go to the bathroom. With the CPAP the problem resolved.
