"My symptoms are constant and I have to ejaculate most days to keep the fullness down and that's the thing I find hard to cope with."
"When flare up I had pain in lower back and pelvic area,pain in groin and some other things,and constant tiredness,fatigue.So for me it was bad enough to get the surgery and Im glad I did it."
"Thanks for your reply.
How bad were things before Harvey?"
"Hi Cris,
Im almost 3 weeks ater LRP by Dr.Eden,catheter out 4 days ago.Almost continenet (using 1 pad a day for peace of mind),erections is working,almost no post operative pain left(just a little when I sit).After surgery did not have a lot…"
"Thanks for that Dave.
I am going to see my gp this week so I will mention it to him.
The worst feeling I get is the fullness feeling if I dont ejaculate every 24 hours.I am finding it very hard to cope with that.
It ony used to be about a week until…"
"Well if things don't improve, speak to your GP about Lyrica (pregabalin) - this is generally favoured over gabapentin by many doctors because the side effects are less severe, apparently. Care has to be taken still, due to the way these…"
"No harm in trying them, except maybe financial, but there are in fact many places that say they treat chronic prostatitis.... but that doesn't necessarily mean they will be giving any different information from your local hospital. I was seen…"
"Nick, how long did it take for most of the pain go away. Seems, talking to some of the guys, it's around 8 weeks post-op. I'm at 6.
Thanks."
"Good to hear that things are going well, Nik. I'm sure that will be encouraging to others who are thinking about the operation."
"I forgot to mention in addition to above that I no longer have to worry about the 70% chance of prostate cancer occurring at a later date as Dr K & E have been finding in their prostatitis patients. Coincidence?…"
"Hi Jon.
Overall doing very well, no regrets about the surgery. The debilitating pain has gone. There is some pelvic discomfort left following orgasm for a day or 2 but nothing that ever leaves me lying in bed for hours/days like before the surgery.…"

- Hi folks
You seem a nice bunch on here so I wanted share my story.I hope you might be able to advice me or maybe not.
I started with this in 1996,I got chlamydia and then got it again then two months after I got an other sexual infection wich was not cultured properly not given the right drugs so it went into my prostate.
I had all kinds os antibiotics but nothing seem to respond always a flare up during treatment.I also spent two two week sesions on intravenous antibiotics wich failed again.I had prostate massage under general nothing worked.All sorts of tests a different places always positive infection.
Then at the end of 1997 I gave up and thought hell to it I am going to have to be strong and just live with and never have a relationship.
In 1998 I met my wife now and I told her about it and she was very understanding and one night we had uprotected sex and then again.
I was so worried I sent her to get checked out and they said everything is ok everything negative but yet I know I still have this infection I have thrush symptoms my foreskin is inflamed at times and the rest.
We also have two children.
In January this year it got very bad so I started to treat it again with abx and supplements.They do help but I think it is just to bad.I think the only option for me is to get it removed .
