CP and Pain - Why?

Post by waynenf »

I have been newly diagnosed with CP (thanks to the webmaster for responding to my first posting yesterday!), and am very curious about something... why do those of us who suffer from CP usually exhibit the same pain symptoms? My original posting:

viewtopic.php?t=582

lists my symptoms (how many of these symptoms do you guys suffer from?), but I am a little curious as to why an inflamed prostate would cause such varied pain? Given the location of the prostate, I'm not sure why some of us have back and groin pain...

Anyone care to shed some light on this?

Yes, it seems strange, but nerves are strange things, capable of referring pain all over the place. Have you heard of "cross-talk" between nerves? If you want all the details, try this:

Good News! The great ProstaQ is BACK at last! You must try it.
