    Have the doctor evaluate you first before anything. Diabetics etc is one of the things that has that as a symptom.

    Stop hydrating so much. Less fluid intake less pee. But don't be stupid and dehydrate to nothing. It will kill you or hurt you pretty quick.

    There are human pee recovery devices designed for aviation in small planes and chemical toilet options where your litter designed for human waste can come out as a bag and tossed or buried. (Biogradable...) as dry waste.

    One of the things you will have to master is the ability to not need bathroom for hours or better yet all day.

    But before you do all that, you stop first at your doctor and have him evaluate you to diagnose a possible root cause that may save your life and or improve the quality of it.

    With that said, I found the Detroiter to be a good stop prior to canada via the peace bridge. Planning ahead prevents the classic gotta go standing in front of or next to a customs asking you questions.

    I am diabetic. I have this. Meds I am on make it 10 times worse. Good thing about being a yard dog. Never too far from a bathroom.

    I hear things like
    -you got diabetes
    -you got a prostate problem
    -stop drinking fluids
    -etc.

    If you drink 1/2 - 1 gal of water a day, you're going to piss a lot. OR, if your nervous you're goin to piss a lot. Has nothing to do with having physical issues or problems. You drink fluids, you're going to piss.

    -Stop drinking Fluids???? (not a good idea).

    BTW; The average person urinates 6-8 times a day. If you drink more Fluids, you'll go more.

    PS. Just spoke with a buddy of mine. He says he stops all the time to piss. He's OTR.
