Is Bm Did In Sleep Anyway Related To Bladder Wall Thickening?
My 5-1/2 year old son has severe bladder wall thickening. He leaks urine daily and fills a pull-up at night. He has also had a bm three times in the past 1-1/2 months during his sleep. Is this related to his bladder wall thickening in any way? Tethered cord was ruled out in an MRI. He takes Flomax and is set to start biofeedback therapy in two weeks.

Hi...bladder wall thickening means that the kid is forcefully and voluntarily - stooping urine when actually it has top be voided. I suggest you tell him to void the urine whenever he feels like it - even if it is in school.
Yes - this is definitely related to bladder wall thickening. This is called dysfunctional voiding or voiding dysfunction.
The above mentioned training alone helps to over come this.
