Hydration
Staying well hydrated seems to help my urinary symptoms greatly. Although I don't have to pee more, my stream is full and I feel like I can empty my bladder. Also, my urologist said that most of his patients that he has diagnosed with chronic prostatitis / chronic pelvic pain syndrome seem to do better when drinking lots of fluids. He said he doesn't know why this is the case, but it seems to be.

Re: For me
My case is similar to texas'. I avoid drinking a lot of liquid so that I'm not chained to the toilet.texas2006 wrote:The less I drink, the less I pee, the less I feel like I have to go, etc.

My initial reaction was to slow down on the water, then last month I developed kidney stones.
After that, I choose the water.
If you are not going to hydrate, you should really take a magnesium supplement to help avoid the kidney stones.
Not a Dr. not medical advice.
