Post by snoopstang »

In my eps culture I have staph coagulase negative and acinetobacter. Is this normal flora of the urethra, ect??? I also have wbc in the eps.
symptoms include low back pain, burning in buttox, and perineum.. Only thing at this point to relieve symptoms is Ativan..

Yes, those bugs are commonly found in men without UCCPS too, so I wouldn't worry about infection. WBCs indicate inflammation, par for the course.
Good News! The great ProstaQ is BACK at last! You must try it.

Also not unusual or significant. I presume you've had a course of broad spectrum antibiotics already?
