How come every time I start to pour myself a cup of coffee...

[Roon]

I have to stop halfway through and go pee? I swear, every time!

1. How slowly do you pour?

2. I use a percolater so I have to pour slow so I don't get grounds.

I also use a HUGE coffee cup,so it probably takes me longer than the average person to pour a cup of coffee. :-)

3. lol

Well at least that answers part of it.

5. when it's done percing

pour a 1/4 cup of COLD water in - that will help settle the grounds

4. It is that "running water phenomena". That or

you have a very tiny bladder.

6. Not a tiny bladder, an overactive bladder.

I can't take the meds for overactive bladder because it conflicts with the meds i am already on. But yeah, once I start drinking coffee or soda..(no more beer) I get up and go a lot.

8. Even normal bladder people have this problem with

coffee and soda, especially caffeinated products. And of course beer (even when I was young and healthy, I rented beer). That is not something to worry about. I know that I ignore doctor's orders on this, but you are supposed to remove all caffeine out of your diet. So, you go too much, or you adjust your diet. Choices!
