writes:As you are already aware - I suffer from OAB. Not only does this influence my sex, love and social life - it also provokes difficulties at school. I attend a boarding school, and teachers love to prevent me from using the toilets, using whatever excuse they can. I'm often limited to using the toilet just twice a day, and forbidden from urinating at night. You may respond with "just wet yourself - it's better than being infected", but the teachers have all sorts of threats ensuring that the pupils do not just release their urine when in pain/suffering. I don't know what to do, and I'm really concerned that I'm going to catch an infection or worsen my disease. Everybody else can cope with the restrictions - I seem to be the only one struggling to hold my bladder and only release twice a day. What should I do? Reply to this Question |

They are breaking school rules by dictating to you when you can urinate if that was here in Scotland i would be talking to my lAWYER about this so this rule is thrown out the window for good! You tell your parents get them to speak to the school and also to take a letter from your Doctor explaining you have OAB and must on every occasion you ask be excused to go to the bathroom teachers will always flaunt this rule because they do not want their classes disrupted and having to repeat lessons because you left the room they are getting paid to teach you not to dictate to you about how often your allowed to urinate an absolute outrage get your parents onto this asap!

Get a hold of your parents and have them talk to the headmaster, make sure they can mail him or bring him a note from your doctor, cause they way you are treated is ridiculous.
Being forced to only urinating twice a day is not healthy.

If your school teachers know about your condition then this would be regarded as an ABUSE.. You can get them in huge trouble.. All you have to do is REPORT THEM..
You don't have to worsen your condition because of a few mad people.. Just give them a punch below the waist..

I'm sorry babes, it all sounds a little sadistic if you ask me. Have you explained to them your medical situation? Message me if you want to talk about anything... xxx
