To quickly access health information from your website's browser, download life in the bathroom I’m 29 years old and live most of my life in the bathroom. I can’t say that it just started a year or two ago. I’ve lived with this my entire life. The embarassing part is that everyone knows that I go often. I gets old not being able to go on long trips without stopping at least five times. Doing anything for that matter. If there is no restroom around, I’m in trouble. I’ve ended up in tears on many occassions, trying to “hold it” until I got to a restroom. If I have an sudden urge or I’ve been holding it too long, every step is a challenge, because it feels like I will pee in my pants. My husband gets aggravated with me because I go so often. I tell him, think how aggravating it is to me having to go so much. On average, I go to the restroom 10-20 times a day. I have a real life. Maybe one day I will be able to afford the medicine and not have to go so much. I dream of that day. That day that no one has to wait because I have to go to the restroom. June 2008
