Thanks everyone for the responses. Mark - don't worry - I had noticed purely by the number of males who use the discussion board that it seems to be predominantly a male problem. But I am extremely glad to have been contacted by some females so I now don't feel quite as bizarre as this problem has often made me feel! Margaret - thanks for the cranberry capsule hint - I hadn't come across them before. I do try to drink quite a bit of cranberry juice but it's not always easy to come across it abroad or when I'm staying in hotels (which I have to do quite a bit with my job) which is where my problem is at its worst - capsules might just help with that. I would be really keen to go to a beginners workshop - one of the things which worries me though is - if I think about it in a concentrated way, will it get to be even more of a problem? I guess I'm tending towards an "ignore it and it will go away" approach (although my body has demonstrated many many times that that is not the case...). Has this been anyone's experience? Ann
