The fast wee may be part of the same issue (though for God's sake make sure you keep an eye on your temp)
There are heaps of muscles and ligaments in your pelvic floor. These get the same caning from the chemo as the rest of your body, though the muscles are smaller than the ones in your legs and back so they may not be as painful.
Dribbling, leaking and dripping on the floor three steps before you get to the loo is, as far as I'm aware from previous conversations, fairly common. Not something we are warned about, of course, but it's another horrible thing we have to learn to manage. I had to buy pads. Ewww.
Not everyone has a problem and it does get better. Eventually. Thankfully. I was terrified I'd spend the rest of my life being one of those old ladies who smell like wee. Marg xxx
