The "holy crap, I have to pee" signal

August 21, 2012

Gavin is having accidents every night now.  This is totally out of character for him.  This began about a year and a half ago but has steadily become worse.

Originally we thought it was seizure related but I guess they have pretty much ruled that out.

At this point,  no one seems to know what's going on or what's behind this.  Right now its the usual suspects,  neurological or autonomic.  We are going to get him into the urologist to make sure that there isn't any other reason for this..

Maybe he's drinking to much,  but he has to.  The other thing is that the doctors think he may not be able to tell when he has to go potty.

The last few times he gave urine samples,  he filled the container with over 750 cc's of fluid.  That's a lot,  incase you weren't aware.  It's always this way. This has led everyone to believe that Gavin may not be receiving the,  *holy crap,  I have to pee* signal.

Who knows.  Well, I know I don't.

Have any of your kids dealt with something like this?

This would also explain why Gavin is always running to the bathroom. He never knows when he has to go....
