Prostatitis - Wont go away - Given Levofloxacin & Vancomycin
Posted , 10 users are following.
Hello All,
I hope to get some help here. Been suffering from Prostatitis for a year now. I have taken so many medicines with some luck. But the pain and discomfort seems to return.
Today i was just given Levofloxacin along with Vacomycin. I have tried Vaco before and felt great after taken medicine but seem to return.
The reason i was given this medicine was because my Urologist took a DRE sample. He mentioned to me that i could be on this medicine for a while.
Any luck with Levo or Vancomycin?

Well my symptoms are usually as below:
-Pain on tip of penis
-Or pain inbetween testicles & anus
-Or pain on the groin (right side) which moves inbetween anus & testicles and inflammates my right side hip and my butt. Sometimes the pain goes to my inner thigh and down to the leg
-Or pain in pubic area
-Or pain in anus as of something is inside pushing out
Also my DRE sample came back positive with enterococcus species

So a physical therapist you think could assist? Also i thought about seeking acupuncture.
Also just read about a book called "Headache of the Pelvis". Not sure if youhave heard about it.
Thanks

Sure i will try to google Exercise physiologists in my area.
Also i plan to buy the book i mentioned above. And yes you are correct Chronic Prostatitis is extremely difficult. This has been a battle for a year now with very little improvement.

No not that i know of. That was not mentioned. I have ben seeing my Urologist for about a year now. He has been trying his best to help cure my Prostate issue. Its been a battle of ups and downs.
How did you get Sepsis. Im not familiar with that.
So far the best luck i have had is Vancomycin. But seems to come back.

Yes we did a blood test. We actually did 2. One was last year (Sept 2014) to check for all STD's and HIV, etc.. All came back negative. And recently in May we checked to see if i had early symptoms of Prostate cancer.
What blood work are you referring too? The ones i listed above?
Thanks
