Thanks to all on this site again.You are a... http://www.healthcentral.com/incontinence/c/1326/70834/thank-you http://www.healthcentral.com/incontinence/c/1326/62207/depends-men Sat, 07 Mar 2009 12:00:46 -0500 Andrei  This is just a quick short post.  If you are a man that was unsatisfied with the performance of Depends for urinary incontinence  in the past,I advise you to try the new Depends For Men.  I was quite pleased,snug fit and protection where you need it. http://www.healthcentral.com/incontinence/c/1326/62207/depends-men http://www.healthcentral.com/incontinence/c/1326/62028/sharing-loved Thu, 05 Mar 2009 18:46:21 -0500 Andrei  In a couple of my last posts I spoke about how I felt when my wife would ask me if I wet my diaper the previous night. I had a hard time talking with her in the past.  I am pleased and releived to say that I no longer have that problem. Know I tell her most of the time if I wet my diaper overnight.At bedtime she will ask if I feel I need to wear one.I even tell her that I need to purchase a package of disposables when I run... http://www.healthcentral.com/incontinence/c/1326/62028/sharing-loved http://www.healthcentral.com/incontinence/c/1326/58436/disposable Thu, 05 Feb 2009 14:03:55 -0500 Andrei  I have recently become concerned about all the recent talk about "Living Green" and the life of disposable diapers.  I understand that a disposable diaper will remain in the landfills forever.  Does anyone know of any research being done to create a disposable diaper that will be friendly to the enviroment.  I am not in a position to wear cloth diapers and plastic pants at this time or in the near future.   http://www.healthcentral.com/incontinence/c/1326/58436/disposable http://www.healthcentral.com/incontinence/c/1326/42791/disposable Mon, 29 Sep 2008 12:28:07 -0400 Andrei I found an article comparing disposable adult diapers that I found useful.

It seems to help me. I would like to hear from others who have experienced the same,or those... http://www.healthcentral.com/incontinence/c/1326/20329/green-tea http://www.healthcentral.com/incontinence/c/1326/18785/year Sun, 06 Jan 2008 17:32:00 -0500 Andrei  I just wanted to write this post to wish all members here at Incontinence Network a healthy and happy New Year. Hope your treatment is working,and if it has, share with us what progress you have made. I feel more secure and sure of myself since I joined this group and shared my experience. I have learned a great deal from members and the professionals who answer questions. Thank you all Andrei http://www.healthcentral.com/incontinence/c/1326/18785/year http://www.healthcentral.com/incontinence/c/1326/18509/normal Mon, 31 Dec 2007 13:01:00 -0500 Andrei I am just geting over a case of pneumonia.Symptoms included severe coughing,soreness in my chest,hard time breathing if I tried to do anything that required prolonged activity.Life goes on, at times I had no choice but to get out of bed.Whenever I carried anything,walked up a set of stairs,I would have to stop and catch my breath.Whenever this occured,I would wet my pants,so I started wearing my diapers 24/7.I am feeling much better now,I am... http://www.healthcentral.com/incontinence/c/1326/18509/normal
