I've had chronic prostatitis for 16 years now. Its been a struggle to even get thru some of my "episodes" but i'm still here fighting the good fight. I've been thinking about alternative therapies, possibly even going to china to see how they do direct injection into the prostate.

I was suffering from major loud whoosing noises and the topamax helped that but everyday I still hear those mainly between 6 - 12 pm. I am at my wits end and have not went...
