One Customer's Story of Living Without Limits Thanks to NorthShore MegaMax Adult Diapers

R.S. shares their story

So, I've had issues with bladder control on off most of my life. It seems to go through cycles of dryness with almost normal control and voiding patterns, and then without rhyme or reason, I have the bladder control of an infant or very young toddler. I've gone through the gauntlet of treatments-from medication to timed voiding, to Botox injections. Nothing has given me 100% control to the point wearing some sort of padding is no longer necessary.

I don't let it bother me though. I find using the proper protection to lifechanging. Some time ago, I realized that for me , the right protection was Northshore. While initially reluctant due to somewhat higher cost than the average premium adult diaper, I have come to find that the increased price is TOTALLY worth it. The quality in construction, absorbency, skin dryness, security, and confidence are just unmatched.

MegaMax contains all my floods with ease. Not many products can. What I really like is that Northshore recently developed different absorbency tiers in the MegaMax line, because some days I don't have Niagra Falls type floods, but rather I have smaller leaks. I appreciate having a value brand lesser absorbency with the quaility construction of MegaMax.

I thought Botox injections would increase my quality of life, but urinary tract infections were an unforseen frequent side effect of this treatment. I plan to not "re up" the Botox, because I don't want to be bothered with trying to cath and do timed toileting when I have a job that requires me to focus 100% on my client. I know MegaMax has my back when the time comes, so I feel comfortable with that decision.

For those of you who are considering trying MegaMax for an active lifestyle or a good night sleep but are on the fence due to cost, let me tell you-the extra cost is WORTH ITx100!!!! No product has given me more confidence despite my caffeine or fluid intake than MegaMax. Your skin will stay dry no matter how much your bladder puts out. Period.

I live my life without limits. Incontinence does not stop me.
