Two more things I'm doing...
Brazil nuts, and now Cranberry juice.
I've been talking about them in this thread...

Maybe I am looking too close, but the urgency thingy seems to be coming back, very slowly.
Last night I was up every hour and a half, in the short time I slept...and the lovely 'control' feeling is somewhat sliding away.
It could be many things.
Perhaps the cranberry juice is too strong, or too acid, or two 5 ounce glasses of it is too much for me right now; or perhaps it is working very well. (A bathroom 'event' seems to show that. Black?!)
Perhaps I need to be more regular in eating Brazil nuts. A few days ago I ate about 20 of them, then none until last night.
Come to think of it, at the dinner with friends, two night's ago, where we were feasting from their garden...I ate commercially breaded fish. Bread???
Back to the drawing board...
F.
Um-m-m... Dh just came in (it's 8 a.m.) and told me that when he bought the cranberry juice, the clerk mentioned 'bladder infection'. Gulp!
I did consider that a while back...but I know little about it.
She also said the juice could be sweetened with stevia. So, that's what he brought me just now...a full six
ounces of cranberry juice (bless his pea-picking heart!), the bottle of stevia, and a spoon. I'm up to two drops, so far, and I must say that much stevia takes the edge off of the tartness...a little.
Onward.
We have a nice
Watermelon sitting on the kitchen counter. That's a good kidney cleanse, isn't it?
Years ago, when this urgency thing started...I couldn't eat
Watermelon in the evening without being up at night. Maybe that was a signal that something needed cleaning out.
Last year, when I ate lots of
Watermelon from the garden, it didn't seem to affect me in the same way...I was up at night, yes, but not increased in any way. I was glad of the watermelon...and we ate it by itself, as a Mexican fellow told us he learned as a child. Other sources say the same thing...about all melons, I believe.
Plus, I am more active lately. Nearly daily I spend a couple of hours swinging boxes and bags of bottles and cans, sorting, bending, leaning, and walking. It helps, I think. The main thing is that I can do it at my own speed, mostly in some shade. I like it. Dh says it cuts his work time in half and he appreciates my help.
Back into metal-detecting, I really like the gentle swinging motion, the bending, the beach, etc...all at my own speed...plus finding things.
Interestingly, I get no urgency, now, during work periods, or immediately after...but, once a light cooler wind comes up at the beach, I'm a goner...instantly.
