Weird penile symptoms

[Glenn]

Since presenting itself,my condition has taken on a number of weird symptoms, which I think are due to Neurogenic Inflammation(Is there any more info on this) .My symptoms do wax and wane, although I am in great discomfort pretty much all of the time. I know Neurogenic inflammation affects different people in different ways but does anyone have,like me a : Swollen,red urethral opening,folded up wrinkly foreskin with lines running around it.My foreskin and the testicular skin moves around ,getting bigger and retracting,resulting in strange sensations throughout this region,like a crawling feeling and pulsing.The foreskin looks sore and the veins look prominent.There's no way my penis looks normal.If you're reading this and thinking ...Urrgh - Just imagine how I 'm feeling! I'm seriously freaked out Dr Dimitrakov says this is quite a common symptom which is present in many cases.Now, I believe Dr D but would just like to hear from any you who have had similiar experiences, and did treatment clear this up.I'm very worried, and sick of suffering.If anyone can pass on any advice, I would very much appreciate it,Glenn.One last thing,does anyone know how long it takes for the results of tests submitted to Dr Dimitrakov in Bulgaria.Just wanted to know,Thanks.

Are you in real pain, or just concerned about the appearance of your genitals? I couldn't decide, based on your post.

[Glenn]

Yes I am in pain.I have bladder discomfort,frequent urination and pain at the base of the penis.

Hi Glenn,

I can't say I've experienced everything you mention here, but I do notice the opening to the urethra is sometimes quite red in color (in comparison to the surrounding area it's in stark contrast). I don't get any discomfort from it, and it goes away fairly quickly. No idea why it happens.

As for the timing of the test results, Dr Dimitrakov is probably the best person to answer that question :)

I can sort of relate here Glenn. My pelvic area is in constant spasm. The muscles seem to expand and retract very slowly. This is also felt throughout my legs and rear. I can only identify it as pelvic floor dysfunction as I hope it is what has caused most of the pain. It is not a fluttering type spasm, but more of a grip like tightness that comes and goes. The only treatment that seems to work are muscle relaxants and or valium. Exercise seems to exaggerate this problem.

I know what you mean there DB3. Diazepam (Valium) has a great effect on my symptoms and lets me sleep comfortably, I'm too scared of getting addicted to it to take it regularly though. I have 7 pills left from my last prescription and have asked my doctor not to prescribe again so as to avoid that fate.

Neurontin might be a good idea to try to wean off valium. Strangely enough (and inexplicably clinically) it is also a partial agonist at the BZ (benzodiazepam) recpetor, although at a different place on the receptor.

I'd not heard of Neurontin before so I did some research. As I understand it (and I may well be wrong) Neurontin is often intended for long term use, has a similar effect to Valium but without the drowsiness (although this can be a side effect) and is non-addictive? Sounds too good to be true... and this article seems to back that up: http://www.citizen.org/ELETTER/ARTICLES/neurontin.htm

Then again, I'm no medical expert, the article may well just be alarmist BS :)
