Nocturia is a condition that causes you to wake up during the night to urinate. This can be thought of as nocturnal urinary frequency — having to urinate more often at night. This condition becomes more common as people age and occurs in both men and women, sometimes for different reason.

Now why am I sharing this with you? You may recall that in an earlier post I mentioned that I don’t know what normal feels like anymore. I have nocturia, all the poking and prodding and being fried in my nether regions mean that I get up 4-5 times per night.

Apologies, I am not trying to bum you all out. So far I have shared my story warts and all with you. This is no different, it’s just what it is.

But it’s not all that bad. I track my fitness daily on my watch. One of the metrics is stand hours. Well the good news is that when I get up in the morning to start my day I already have a few stand hours up my sleeve…… You see there’s always another side. The ying to the yang or is it the yang to the ying??? 🤪🤪🤪
