I'm typing neuro exam:  Motor exam:  ...deconditioning and *involutional* atrophy of age.

Villous atrophy

Subject: I googled incontinent and came up with

in·con·ti·nent /ɪnˈkɒntnənt/ Pronunciation Key - Show Spelled Pronunciation[in-kon-tn-uhnt] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation
–adjective 1. unable to restrain natural discharges or evacuations of urine or feces.
2. unable to contain or retain (usually fol. by of): incontinent of temper.
3. lacking in moderation or self-control, esp. of sexual desire.
4. unceasing or unrestrained: an incontinent flow of talk.

so probably incontinent of affect is correct. Agree, never heard that one before.
