OT Putting your hand in cold water and instantly needing to have a pee
I have just gone to remove a broken bathplug from on old dear's bath down
the street. The bath was full of cold water as she had the bath this morning when the plug broke. As soon as I put my hand into the water I needed the toilet - and this was not a "just needed pee" this was a "less than 5 seconds to pee" mode. Any ideas why this would happen? No pun intended - I really am not taking the ****, this really happened. I am used to the cold as I spent Tuesday and Wednesday working outside for most of the day. -- Adam |

The other was that if I pressed on a certain spot on my lower back I lost bladder control. Both of these persist to the present. Bill |

OT Putting your hand in cold water and instantly needing to have a pee
Its very common though. Its worse with iced water. the thing is though that
there is not always that much pee to come out. I suspect it might have things to do with shock or maybe the way the body tries to conserve heat or move blood internally away from extremities.

OT Putting your hand in cold water and instantly needing to have a pee
A lot of us as we age find our guts get shall we say lower due to gravity,
and it kind of gets folds that can when you lay in certain positions press against the bladder and make one feel like you need to pee. I know cos it happens to me. Maybe these folk who do shoulder stands know about this. Brian -- From the Sofa of Brian Gaff Reply address is active "Mr Pounder" wrote in message ... "ARW" wrote in message ...

Movember, Bob Monkhouse and all that... Yeah, but even with Benign prostatic hyperplasia, which is what I've had for years, you do need to pee more often. I've had fingers up me bum so many times since the 1970s, it's becoming mundane now. First time was a bit embarrassing. But you don't know the meaning of embarrassment until it's a woman doctor snapping on the latex glove! Even then, I've had at least two. You get used to it.

(bit of a bore for SWMBO who happens to sleep on my right !:=(( Chris So why not get into bed alone, say five minutes before your wife/partner, lie on your right, have said fart, then waft the duvet about a bit, then call out "Ducky, it's safe to come in now!"

No pun intended - I really am not taking the ****, this really happened. I am used to the cold as I spent Tuesday and Wednesday working outside for most of the day. It might be immersion diuresis. But even that seems ill-researched Try telling that to any scuba diver who's in the water for more than an hour - even in warm waters I struggled to avoid peeing in my wetsuit... In coler waters on longer dives (3 hours) in the dry suit it was fine though - I have plumbing to the outside... (Google p-valve if you really want to know!) Oh, it also goes without saying (or should, but I'll say it anyway) that if you're a chap in your late 40's or older, then any signs of problems in the waterworks department really should be checked out by your doc! Movember, Bob Monkhouse and all that... Yeah, but even with Benign prostatic hyperplasia, which is what I've had for years, you do need to pee more often. I've had fingers up me bum so many times since the 1970s, it's becoming mundane now. First time was a bit embarrassing. But you don't know the meaning of embarrassment until it's a woman doctor snapping on the latex glove! Even then, I've had at least two. You get used to it. My BIL, a doc in Germany, says, you simply don't see the person, you see a medical condition. You wait until it's a woman (and it has been, two out of three times) with a bloody great needle up your bum, taking ten needle biopsies each time. -- Use the BIG mirror service in the UK: http://www.mirrorservice.org *lightning protection* - a w_tom conductor |

Why avoid it? Hell, in my original club we even had a signal which meant "I have just peed in my wetsuit and it's lovely." Because the wetsuits stink if you don't wash them out afterwards... Yes, I know. I dived for ~15 years. And if you dive in the sea and don't wash them out afterwards, they stink anyway.

What a ruddy stupid gimmick! I wonder how much Reading council tax payers paid for that PoS? Imagine if you were inside taking a slash and the computer decided to sink back into the pavement. Erm, you never go 'inside' - it's a three-man urinal and you stand outside in full view to use it (not that I've ever used one myself, but I understand the principle).
