Hello

I am a 32 yrs old male. I have seen a urologist as It seems I had a poor flow of urination. My Urologist suggests that I should go through Cystoscopy to find out whats going on. and it would be a minor procedure. I had my Cystoscopy about 3 months back and since then I haven't had a single day without pain and burning sensation. the pain level could go very worse at certain times. I have seen my urologist more than 5 to 6 times since my cystoscopy. My urologist said there is nothing wrong with my bladder everything seems good, but analyzing my symptoms and pain, I have prostatitis and He suggested I take antibiotics to get rid of infection and prostatitis.  I have changed my medicines 2 to 3 times and currently taking Levaquin and my pain and burning don't seem to go away. Please suggest what should I do?

I am very worried and concerned, since I never experienced this sort of pain before, only from the day of my cystoscopy.  It's hard to live with this pain on a daily basis.  I travel for my work quite frequently. this pain is causing me not to travel and affects my work tremendously. There isn't a single day I wake up in the morning and does not worry about my pain. 

?Please advise and help.

    Hello Ransr - I'm not a doctor, so I can't advise you on a course of treatment.  Have you considered having a second opinion?  Sometimes it's good to have another 'pair of eyes' take a look at you.  See what you can do, and I hope things work out better for you!

    Best regards -- Alan

      Hello Alan12675

      THanks for your guidance. I have seen another urologist for second opinion as you suggested. 

      According to him, I did not needed the Cytoscopy  and last 4 months of Antibiotics to prevent the pain from Cysto. Currently, I am going through a CT scan to make sure whats really causing the pain. 

      Did the first doctor really screw up or damaged any nerve during the procedure. 

      Hope I get to find out and get rid off this pain that I am having for last 5 months.

      Thanks.
