Reeve Foundation Paralysis Community

Hello, this is very new for me. less that two months, since my accident. I am a male 46 yrs old. T9 fracture, paraplegic. I was wondering about sex...not really about the act but I have found that for that last 4 days I have been awakened every day with sticky underwear.....(I feel 12 yrs old again). Is this normal? RIM

because this is all so new, you must have hundreds of strange kinds of experiences and reactions to them. And I hate to "turf you off" with your first question in this forum, but yours is more of a medical question and I am not knowledgeable enough to answer it. But there is another forum called "health matters" that should be helpful for you. With this question anyway.
But please come back with any questions or comments you might have about how all of this is affecting your thoughts and emotions and other relationships.
Please take care and I hope you get your answers sooner rather than later

Thank you for your response. At least I know where to go with questions. I guess, for me its just easier to ask this way than to ask in person. Not much of anything is private anymore, was just hoping someone else had an idea. Thanks again.
