Just stumbled across this on the web and just wanted to know what you guys think?
I've never heard that sertraline actually might help, I thought in most cases it just exacerbated symptoms!
Age:25 Onset age:20 | Symptoms: Bladder/rectum pain, heartburn, sexual dysfunction, urethra and perineum pain, IBS, chronic fatigue. Makes worse: bad diet, poor sleep, alcohol. Makes better: positive thinking, good diet, drinking lots of water, internal/exernal stretching

Zoloft absolutely destroyed my sleep and sex life. In my experience with the antidepressants....it had the worst side effects of the 6-7 I've tried with absolutely no help.
Age: 45 Onset: 43. | Symptoms: Tightness, spasms, burning and pain in the perineum. Occassional mild pain after urination in the perineum. Helped by: Cardura, quitting caffiene, relaxation, fiber, stand up workstation and some PT a year ago. Makes Worse: ANXIETY, ULTRAM, going to work, sitting or squatting too long, constipation (big problems), stress, and sometimes unexplainable.
