Ballistic vest problems

[ksia]

This may sound really strange, but I'm wondering if anyone has had a similar problem... When I wear my vest, it seems I have to use the restroom several times per shift. Does anyone know of any research that involves vests and what it does to your body?

It's possible that the bottom edge of your vest is pressing into your lower abdomin (sp?) (belly) exerting pressure on your bladder. I haven't heard of this particular problem before. I on the other hand have been drinking lots of water lately in my quest for health, it has an unfortunate side effect, I elliminate lots of water, frequently.
Anyway, Good luck, K9
