Recurring Prostatitis

I had a similar issue in 2013. Occurred out of nowhere. Drove me crazy. Had a weird tingling feeling, also felt like I had to perpetually climax after peeing. It was hell. Saw several urologist who told me it "was in my head." Finally saw a great one at BR Clinic. Prescribed gabapetin and over time it got much better. Had scopes, all of it. Still don't know what caused it but I think it was nerve related as well. I started working out and that became a habit to clear my head (top one) during this period. It lasted over a year. I changed up my diet significantly and gradually got better and better. Also, did Lexapro for awhile as it made me anxious. It's been years since I had an episode. That period really affected me mentally, created quite a bit of anxiety. I say all that to say....wise man told me stay off message boards because no one ever comes back and says its gets better. Well, I'm here to tell you....it gets better.

I have had it- cut out extremely seasoned foods and it went away

Also it is hard for your prostate to absorb meds so it could take several rounds

Check out Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy.

Also don’t settle for a therapist that wants you to shove a probe up your butt and do kegels while watching a screen for feedback.

You want a PT that may ask to let them perform an internal assessment to happen, but will also have you squat, lift, etc. to actually mimic your activities and goals.

I always recommend looking up a ICE trained PT in your area as they are a fitness forward group

I had urine flow issues at one point a few years ago, and a nurse practitioner at a urology place immediately told me prostatitis. Prescribed heavy antibiotics that never fixed it.

I got a vasectomy later on, and the urologist was a little worried about it being something worse since it never really cleared up. He ran a few tests and wanted to do a scope to check out my bladder. Turns out I had a stricture in my urethra...Hopefully you don't have that, but it wouldn't hurt getting it checked out if you've taken any direct hits to the dick

It’s awful to deal with. Urologist gave me 30 days of antibiotic and it didn’t work. He prescribed it even though the urine sample showed nothing. I wasn’t really satisfied with the dr. He wanted to say it was bph even though the symptoms started out of nowhere. I didn’t buy that explanation. And he wanted to put some sort of stint in and I declined that option. I finally starting researching myself. You could try this service which tests for various types of infection. Microgendx

I resolved it sufficiently before actually ordering this test. What helped was a strict keto diet and increased exercise. Of course, I dropped 40 pounds and had to stop that diet because I kept losing weight. It did improve them symptoms. What finally resolved the symptoms sufficiently, and this could be completely coincidental, is when I started taking a b complex supplement and did one bottle of Benfotiamine. I think that was 2 months. I tried it because I read some article about b vitamins helping the bladder. I have no idea if the supplements helped or if the issues just resolved over time. It took me about a year. I was completely unsatisfied with urologist however. I wouldn’t say I am completely where I was before I got the initial infection, but at least I the symptoms of not being able to empty resolved sufficiently that I quit exploring for further solutions. I hope you find some resolution.
