Hi Adrian, Last month I came back from Beijing to Dublin via Abu Dhabi, 9 hour & 15mns 1st leg, 2 hour stopover then 8 hour flight to Dublin, did not go at all, I did try several times, never came close, surprisingly I was not in any great pain,( and I'm in my late 50's) I had prepared well before boarding,did not have tea or coffee went to the toilet as often as possible. during the flight tried not to get too stressed & did not drink too much just some water, DO NOT have tea or coffee it irritates the bladder... who knows you may have over come some of your fears the next time you fly Good luck with everything Adrian Eddie O'
