Re: New Here - Hello
Have you tried physical therapy with someone trained in treating chronic pelvic pain? If you haven't, you need to do so prior to giving up. Make a trip to the US if you must; there are several PT choices in the northern states. Rhonda Kotarinos, Marilyn Freedman, Stacey Futterman. There's the Wise-Anderson Protocol clinic in California, if you can afford it.
I am not a physician. This is not medical advice. Consult your doctor!

Highly unlikely unless the calcification is very large.mike7311 wrote:The latest is the last ultrasound has found calcification in the prostate and perhaps this is causing issues.

Re: New Here - Hello
Well I had a TRUS and also a Ultrasound of the penis. To the urologist's surprise there were no significant calcification. There was significant inflammation around the prostates especially around the seminal vesicle. I do see a Dr that does prostate massage, looks at a slide etc. I'm asking this urologist to send to my GP all testing, Drugs etc. May look for another opinion does anyone know of a PT in the greater Toronto area? I've tried PT but not internal. I'm seeing a physiologist to assist with my chronic pain, stress etc. Can anyone else help or give suggestions? Now that I'm on part time work i don't have unlimited funds.
God Bless
