When they fill me up, I can't void lying on a table. Effective potty training-thanks, Mom. Any suggestions? Full of problems today-Betheny

How independent are you in your transfers? Can you stand? At my center they can put the electrodes in place and the catheters, then allow you to get up onto a commode to complete the study if this is needed. You may need to ask around for a lab that can accomodate this. It is a little trickier as movement like this can dislodge the catheters or electrodes.
