At 64 years, there is a possibility you could be having a weak bladder or a bladder outlet obstruction.
The way to go would be by having an ultrasound of kidneys and bladder with an estimate of post void residue and a uroflowmetry following which we will know if you ate likely to respond to drugs called alpha-blockers such as Urimax or Flomax, or an anti cholinergics such as darifenacin.
