Bob,

What do you use for protection? Me, i have tried every incontience product known to man, and then some... pads, guards, belted shields, pullups, and briefs.. and as many on the board know.. i struggled with the idea of wearing a full-blown brief.. but in my expereince, for men, it's the only real adequate protection, regardless of the level or type of incontinence, because for us the point of where urine leaves the body can vary from one minute to the next depending on whether "it" is up or down.. and pullps leave gaps at the legs.. guards buch up and lose their adhesiveness.. undergarment straps get twisted and chafe.. briefs are the only thing I wear nowdays and im comfortable with it. And yes, even with a taped brief on you can still use the toilet.. its a matter of eitehr finding a brief that has velcro tabs.. or one that is easy to pull up and down without untaping the tabs. The problem with pullups is most do not have adequate padding coverage..

I totally agree. I really like the look of the Depends Real Fit for men, but they are useless when I have surges. The best diaper, in my experience, has been Northshore Supreme Briefs. Sometimes it's worth the extra piece of mind wearing a brief especially if you plan on being in a place where there is no restroom nearby.
