00:00Well, I got a couple of years ago that I first noticed that I was weaning a lot more, and I thought to myself,
00:05you know, I might be in a bit of trouble here.
00:07But, you know, a typical man, you know, wasn't thinking about being incontinent,
00:13and I just kept pushing with it until the pain started coming.
00:17And when the pain came, I thought, right, this is something serious.
00:20So I ended up going to the doctors because, you know, it was affecting my sleep.
00:25It was affecting my well-being.
00:27And normally, you know, typical male, just push it through until I went and got help.
00:32And then they gave me a diagnosis saying, okay, this is called retention,
00:37which meant that my bladder wasn't emptying all the time I went to the bathroom.
00:45And all of a sudden, I knew what it was, and then I got a plan to get it fixed.
00:49Yeah.
