E Coli bacteria -interesting correlation

[akia]

There was some information on the news that made me spin around and take notice. A few years ago there was an E Coli outbreak in a small town in Ontario called Walkerton. Many of the residents got very sick and some died from drinking the contaminated local water supply.

Those residents are now in court fighting for compensation for their many long term ailments. The part that made me take notice was the statement that some of the ailments in the men include kidney problems.

I found this so interesting because over 10 years ago I suffered from E Coli poisoning and spent a long time in the hospital recovering. Is it possible that my problems could be similar to the problems of the men in Walkerton? My problems started just a few years after the incident. About the same time its been since the Walkerton outbreak.

Its a possibility. How would I look in to that?

Too late all these years later to look into it. But it's interesting that Reiter's ( https://ucpps.men/reiters-syndrome-reactive-arthritis-and-prostatitis ), which features chronic pelvic pain in some patients, is often provoked by a bowel infection (although e.coli has not been implicated yet).

one of my buddies was diagnosed with E coli 6 weeks ago and now battles a prostate

Yes, you can contract this from Ecoli. I became severely ill last year and a few weeks later developed prostatitis. My hips felt as though they were on fire and I was horribly fatigued with confusion. After a trip to the uro I was informed that I had a badly inflamed prostate. When he touched my prostate I almost hit the ceiling, very painful. I wasn't treated until three months after the symptons began simply because I had no idea what was happening - I've never been sick before. I was prescribed Ciprio and various other antibiotics for four months which apparently cleaned it up - then it returned. This is terrific - I left my job due to this infection and now I'm without health insurance. I have no wife or girlfriend to help me along and having an incredibly hard time finding "gainful" employment in this sh*tty economy. The community - "we don't care about your infection, we're too busy covering our own rearends, tough luck ol'boy" Anybody know where I can get my hands on an M134 ? (KIDDING:)
