To all, also read the 5th article from that web site. Hopefully non of will have to do the RC but, the 5th article indicates the future is bright with regenerated bladders.

Hi Suzi,
Interesting. Having spent a lifetime avoiding peeing anywhere except my loo at home, I had often wondered if "holding it" had meant any carcinogens in my urine had had more time to do damage.Who knows.

Interesting research... but it didn't help me. As a guy who's been waking at least once a night for as long as I can remember and can never walk past a rest room without going in, just add it to the list of risk factors I didn't have.

To all my friends here,
It's interesting news about nighttime urinating and the risk of BC, for me it is true I wasn't that person who drinks a lot and urinate when ever feels you need to. I remember when I used to stay the whole day without going to rest room when I was an University's student and no one told me it was not good for my health, please speak it out to all friends as a kind of protection. may be it will help, who knows?
Here is the article web,

with my best wishes to stay healthy
Suzi

Be strong and don't give up.
