UCPPS - Prostatitis, Interstitial Cystitis Forum

Op. Same thing happened to me. After a regrettable sexual encounter. I know its hard to believe it can happen this way but chasing bacteria is a dead end and a waste of time. Microgen is a scam of all scams. I was told this but still headed down the rabbit hole myself and got nowhere. Now its been ...

Thanks for not kicking me out of here. Appreciate all your advice

Admin comment: High five, buddy You've got this.

I tested negative for EVERYTHING AGAIN. I was even negative on level 2 next-gen. Guess I took the wrong path. I must have some mental issues. Time to except the reality that I have created this myself through anxiety guilt shame and anger at myself. I am a cautionary tale.

Well I'm most likely a "mental" person when it comes to this. I do appreciate the moderator here for putting up w me. W out this site I doubt I would be here. Alive that is. There are 2 sides and they seem both militant in their opinions on what causes this. So for a beginner it can be very ...

Took test today. Still no WBCs in urine. No antibiotics in 7 months. Guess I'll know for sure in a week

Someone told me that since my symptoms started after after a sexual encounter I should retest. Especially since I was on antibiotics at time of PCR test. Specifically test for mycoplasma genitalium. So I did some reading. If antibiotics effect the reliability of PCR test as in false negative, then ...

Thanks for posting this. Great info

I did read it. I guess more to a specific question would be why the urinary symptoms and how to get rid of them. Tried the ic diet for 2 months but no change other than weight loss. Just very perplexed and would rather not go to another doc but looking like my only option.

My symptoms started as urinary frequency and urgency. The rest of them have calmed down quite a bit and when in a flare they do not last long however, the urinary symptoms penis tip pain and redness still the same more or less. How do I get rid of these? I can't find any internal therapy for those ...

Well I had somewhat of a miracle happen. I was cured for the first time in 7 months over the last weekend. From Friday to Sunday. About 3 on Sunday it started back up again after a bm. But its not too bad right now. A little hope I guess. I had a fishing tournament at the lake which is what I love ...

I got mine on audible

Update: Wife had pap, internal ultrasound and hpv test. Everything looks good. Couldn't find any reason for abnormal bleeding. They did not test for anything specific as far as bacteria but also I suppose didn't find any reason to. They did uterine a cervical biopsy. Blood tests were normal along w ...

Also I used 850mg amoxicillin 2 or 3 times a day I can't remember. For a week starting the day after the encounter.

I also find it hard to believe I have an infection since I took all those antibiotics. They never helped. I might have had a random 4hrs here and there of no symptoms but no more than that. My urinary and urethral symptoms have gotten worse in the past 6 weeks or so. Urine doesn't smell too awful ...

Is it possible my B complex multivitamin is causing it? Its usually only in the evenings or at least its most noticeable then.
