What is your score on the Chronic Prostatitis Symptom Index (posted on home page)?: n/a
If you have been diagnosed with prostatitis, please tell us your story: age, duration of symptoms, treatments, results, and the like.: I just turned 28 and was diagnosed with prostatitis 4 and a half years ago, a month after graduating from college. My main symptom which became debiltating, was the constant urgency, full bladder. I have seen more than a dozen urologists and done extensive research on the disease for the better part of five years now. I saw a remission of symptoms after a 2 year struggle. There is no way to describe the fear and pain that I went through. However there is hope. I read the book a headache in the pelvis and it helped tremendously. I am having a flare up, been 6 weeks, but I know that once bacterial infection and disease is ruled out that anxiety can be a huge contributing factor.
Which is your favorite prostatitis web site, forum, or blog?: http://prostatitis.org, the prostatitis foundation
Do you have a web site?: http://www.rainingat33.com

I agree with you, STRESS,,,, I think the book by amy stein is way better than the head ache in the pelvis book though, if you have not gotten it or heard of it , get it, I have little to no symptoms at this point for 3 years,,, went on anti depresent, and went to pelvic floor dysfunction physical therapy... was stress,,, after feeling better got a divorce lol,, no flair up through that whole debacle, so that says alot... was on antidepresent cymbalta, helps with anexiety and with nerve pain... Im off that for 2 years now,,, took valium also good muscle relaxer, off that to if i feel tense ill take one though,,, or eat a home made medical cookie (wink wink),,,, Anyway Ill talk to anyone about this curse,,, I hope you feel better dude... anytime contact me and ill try my best to give you advise to help you!!!!!
