Another milestone, another rave. This is probably only of interest to men. I've recently been able to start peeing without pooping. It's nice to not have to sit every time. I suppose it's different for women, because if they sit I guess they just relax everything and poop as long as they're on the pot anyway. Things are never so bad that they can't get worse. | ||

Good news! It took me several weeks after takedown before I was able to pee standing up! Jason Colorectal cancer dx: 6/20/06 Step 1: 8/9/06 Gall bladder: 9/13/06 Chemotherapy: 10/5/06-3/24/07 Step 2: 6/6/07 FAP dx: 3/6/08 Adhesion surgery: 6/6/11 | ||||

Harlan - You are finding great milestones! I was also pleased when I could finally urinate without pooping all the time, and I'm a woman. Thanks for pointing out that's progress. ~~~~~ You can't change the direction of the wind, but you can adjust your sails ~~~~~ | ||||

Milestones are milestones...we take them when and where we can! Congrautlations. Sharon It could be worse...oh, wait..it already has been! then I guess it can only get better from here.... | ||||

Guess I've trained myself to "empty my pouch" every time I urinate. No problem since I'm female EXCEPT when I need to give a urine specimen! I just can't urinate without releasing something from my pouch...even if I just did so. Any ideas short of self catheterizing...which I can do but it is such a bother! | ||||

That's kind of what I meant about it being an accomplishment for guys to go standing up (I know, it's not fair) If I sit down to pee there's no way I won't do some pouch emtying at the same time. Things are never so bad that they can't get worse. | |||
