The icon may confuse some people. It's Lemmy Koopa. Lemmy+having to pee=this community lol.

If you join feel free to leave an introduction post. I'm a 50 yr old cismale diagnosed 9 years ago. I am unfortunate in that my bladder is always flaring, or painful. Fortunately, I applied for SSDI disability, and received it 5 years ago, so things are less terrible than they used to be. Nice to meet you all!
