A member asked:
If a diabetic has to urinate at that second, but can't, is it bad to hold it a little while until finding a restroom?

Not bad at all?: Nothing wrong and likely preferable in your opinion to hold the urine and not be incontinent until you get to a bathroom. If this is becoming a really big problem (and sounds like it's getting there quickly) you should discuss things with your doctor as there are medications that can help with this sort of bladder spasticity if the primary problem can't be found or controlled.
