Post by chickencheesesteak »

Since this thing started I have slowly developed chest pains. It is now become my worst area of pain. What the hell is going on? Last I checked my prostate wasn't anywhere near my chest!

Obviously you have something similar to fibromyalgia starting from the prostate.

Interesting note: CRPS can affect the heart. This may not be relevant to your case.
Good News! The great ProstaQ is BACK at last! You must try it.

Well, chest pain does not have to be related to the heart. It might be coming from the ribs ot from the muscles of the thorax, too.

Or esophagitis or heart disease or lung disease or costochondritis or..... You need to see and be assessed by a doctor. I am constantly amazed when I examine and evaluate men with longstatnding chronic prostatitis / chronic pelvic pain syndrome at the unrelated pathology I find, which has been ignored since the patient was labelled with the diagnosis years ago. I have found prostate cancer, bladder cancer, kidney stones, hernias, heart valve problems, etc. See a doctor.

Quite so. Unfortunately, just because you have chronic prostatitis / chronic pelvic pain syndrome does not mean the Fates will spare you from other ills. :cry:
