In the past 2 weeks, my boyfriend has had
some very strage sleep habits. He has
been sleepwalking and during that, he
urinates. The first time, he pulled a
speaker cover off and urinated there, and
another time, he pulled a small waste
basket from a corner and went in there.
At first, we just laughed about it, but
i've heard that in come cases, brain
tumors cause this type of behavior. We
really don't know what to think about it -
he can remember when he urinates slightly,
so I don't think it's just sleepwalking.
I was also under the impression that
sleepwalking did not usually occur in
adults. If anyone knows anything about
this sort of thing, please reply. I just
wanted to do some research before jumping
to any conclusions and sending him to a
doctor.
Thank you for your time

Sleep Walking Posted: 04-28-04 22:18pm
There are quite a few cases of adult sleep
walking. I myself walk / sleep active
several times a week and am currently
medicated for it. Ive pretty much done
most things while asleep but no urnating.
I consult your doctor about this and
perhaps some more internet search.
