Rob's Experience

I got Prostatitis just this past christmas eve and suffered with it for about 2 months taking the normal round of antibiotics. First they had me on levaquin, but that made me too jittery to sleep. Next they put me on cipro, and that made my acid reflux go through the roof, but I stayed on it for a couple weeks, Then my symptoms seemed to get worse I was urinating every 15 minutes and I went into the ER because my doctor didn't seem to be available. The ER put my on flagyl along with the cipro, and together both of those drugs gave me acute panic attacks. So finally they put me on Bactrim and which seemed to help a little with my symptoms, I still had the frequent urination and the frequent need to urinate. They also put me on oxybutinin which helped with my frequent need and frequent urination but it made it tough for me to urinate when I regularly needed to. I had to strain to urinate.
I went to a handful or urologists who all didn't seem to take my condition seriously and didn't seem to care. They all told me to just take the meds and deal with it and that it would take months or longer to alleviate and that it could come back many times over the course of the rest of my life.
I started doing some research on my own and came across this site. After reading all the articles here I grabbed a fist full of cash went down to my local Vitamin Shoppe and stocked up on all the supplements, then bought an Aneros and a tube of KY. I started off on a regimen of the Carlsons fish oil, saw palmetto, stinging nettle, pygeum, lycopene, and zinc, and a multim-vitamin making sure that the multi-vitamin was low in zinc since the prostate suppliment already had some in it. And to top it all off I began prostate massage using the Aneros twice a week. I started this a little over 2 months ago and the results have been outstanding.
Now I urinate every 3+ hours during the day depending on how much fluids I consume but never any more frequently the 2+ hours. I Sleep through the night only having to get up to urinate 1 time maybe 2 depending on how late I drink any fluids before bed. I also have a lot more energy and I generally feel much better.
Sexually I am ejaculating like a pron star and my libido is much higher now. All around this has been the best treatment for me and is doing wonders for me.
This has been the best information and help I have gotten for this condition and I am confident that as long as I maintain my current treatment with the suppliments and the prostate massage that I will never again have to suffer from prostatitis or even BPH later in life.
