In clinic yesterday, I asked every patient if they had seen Family guy the night before, just before I checked their prostate (later in the episode, Peter successfully sues the doctor for sexual assault!). Following in the heals of "The Vasectomy Song" I suspect Seth McFarlaine has a Urologist friend.

When I was living in Brooklyn, I went to the ER once (near the beginning) because of the pain. They made this poor young woman (intern) do my prostate exam. I was in too much pain to be embarassed, but I'm sure it was a fun experience for her.

* Age:33 Onset: February 2004.
* 99.9% IMPROVEMENT in 2.5 Years with the first year being the really hard part
* Current Symptoms: Mild irritation of perineal muscles on occasion. Relieved for days at a time by a specific stretch (see below).
* Initial Symptoms: Terrible penile, urethral, rectal, and perineal burning/aching with addition afferent sensations.
* Current Treatments: Deep stretching of the legs and pelvis. Most effective: Deep psoas and levitar ani stretch using the first phase of the "pigeon pose" from Yoga. When a deep pulling is felt in the middle of the pelvis next to the upper rectum, symptoms are completely alleviated for several days.
* Past Treatments Hyperprotection of the perineum for 1.7 years, Walking, Rectal biofeedback, Stanford/Wise-Anderson Protocol, Conditioned deep relaxation practice, Men's Multi-Vitamin and an Extra B-complex pill, all seemed to help.
