DS1 has still not been dry at night unless on occasions, and is 11. DS2 is fine.
We've tried desmopressin at the lower and higher dose and it hasn't worked, now been told to stop it as it would have worked by now.
Didn't find the clinic very helpful, they said well it's not a hormone problem then so it must be around the bladder capacity and training the bladder, drinking more etc. We have been doing this already though. She said it's his responsibility now due to his age, but really it's not within his control.
Says they tried to get him to do bladder capacity measurements but he wouldn't.
Hmm, feeling a bit exasperated. Has anyone else had this and did anything work? He's just started at secondary school and it's pretty busy and even more tricky to encourage all the drinking etc. I will try though. He does get thirsty in the evening and trying to stop him drinking then as think this doesn't help.
