Please no men. This is a bit embarrassing.
The last 3 trips I did, I have experienced, piddling. I do not understand it.
I am a larger gal, and I have that, "Gotta go, gotta go, gotta go RIGHT NOW" then I run or walk legs tightly pressed and crooked to the nearest loo. I know this is my own issue, so I try to accommodate by doing my business before hiking, and before bed, even though I get out of the Hammock 2-3 times at night to try to make it as far away as I can.
It is bad. My hubby is so nice about it on the trail. Catching my trekking poles as I turn around and dump them in front of him, all the while unbuckling and dancing to get the pack off. He try's to catch my pack, but sometimes it hits the ground. He knows it's no joke. I'll drop my pants and pee anywhere. It's not my ideal situation. I wish I could pee standing up, but it doesn't work with my body design. I wish I could just pee with the pack on, but again, not a good plan and it doesn't work.
So the last 3 trips, I've experience piddling throughout the whole freaken hike. I cannot stop it. I do Kegels, and my muscles are strong there. But I just all of a sudden piddle in my panties. I have no control. It is Horrible! I am not sure if it is a little or more and I freak out. I start cussing and ready to cry on the trail. I feel so out of control. I swear it's piddle, I do not think my downstairs can sweat that much, that fast.
My hubby claims it is because I'm not drinking enough water. I hesitate drinking too much water, because I know it makes me have to pee, and I get no warning. He yells at me to drink more, and claims I'm dehydrated, and that might cause loss of muscle control or something.
I get sensations that I have to pee, but not like a bladder infection. It goes away once at camp or TH.
I feel like a cocker spaniel piddling all over.
Is there a Doctor in the house? or a VET? Any ideas? I read the thread on panty liners, and I'm not sure if I should go straight to a diaper. grrrr...
Help???? please????
