HELP...prostatitis? Muscles?..going NUTZ!

[fastu]

Hey all....
First off, I'm GLAD I found this forum....I suspected my condition might be muscle related, but no Uro I ever went to said they ever heard of a relationship to muscle tension and prostatitis....this forum is GREAT

Heres a novel of mystery.......

about 3 years ago, I developed a swollen testicle...I assumed it was from a refrigerator I had moved around the year before or something. I had a doc check it out and she said it was a hernia, but it would have to get WORSE before it should be operated on.....well, it got BETTER, so I didn't worry about it, but for three years that testicle was a bit sensitive. I would also feel a pull going up my abdomen to my appendix scar every once in a while. No big deal, I could live with it.I did notice a gradual decline in erection strenght and urin flow during this time...

3 months ago I started weight training...VERY light weights...I was afraid I would aggravate my "hernia". A week into my training, I did some leg lifts, [never did them before], and then took an hour drive....when I got out of the car, it felt like I got smashed in the nuts, and my whole abdomen tightened up...my pubic bone looked swollen too...I thought I ignigted that hernia.

The pain lasted 2 days, and when I finally got to the doc[differnt from the first], my pain subsided....he checked for hernia and said I absoulutly DID NOT have one. ???....well, since the pain was gone now, I casually mentioned to him about my weak erections and slow urin flow. He checked my prostate and said it felt a bit spongy...he put me on Cipro for 10 days.

A few days later, I started to get burning sensation and that feeling of not being able to empty the bladder. I would urinate and feel I have to go again and again.....what was wierd was I only felt the need on the SIDE of the old swollen testicle. I began to feel tip of penis pain and a tightness going to my anus, again, only on that one side.

The doc then took me off Cipro and gave me Tetracycline [can't spell it, and it didn't work anyway!]

Felt like it was getting a bit better, but then, I started to get incredible testicle tightness after bowel movements to the piont where I could hardly stand, much like my first attack that started this all. This would happen once a week. ..twice when just sitting on a floor.

I sought out a Uro...tried to give me Flomax and said basically Id have to live with this...do\idnt take Flomax or his advise

Went to another Uro, siad I had a lot of white blood cells in the draind prostrate fluid, and he threw me on Cipro for 30 days.

Well, I've been on Cipro for two weeks and I dont feel any different. All my symptoms are on my right side. I feel like I sit on a lump when I drive. Urinations are frequent. 5 minutes after doing so, it feels like I have to go again. I DO feel tight on that one side.

ANY advise would be INCREDIBLE....should I seek out a Ciropractor?
What exacty are the stretches I could try??

Thanx for taking the time to read this and good luck to all

[one day...]

I came down with all of this when I was on a heavy lifting, and running program . Of course it was also a very stressful time as well. I have had bouts of back pain, and epidi, but it has faded now. I wonder if joint dysfunction is worth a look for me? Also does wise and anderson take this possibility into consideration when evaluating patients??
