    Jonesy891,

    Before you do anything else, you need check what your blood uric acid levels are. If your diet has alcohol, spicy foods then especially get your blood uric acid level checked. I had almost the same  symptoms before and I found out my blood uric acid levels were too high. 200mg of Allopurinol from the doc helped me get my acid levels down and my pain is gone. 6 years of pain for me before I put it together myself. Hope this helps. High uric acid can lead to Gout and also enlarge and irritate the prostate.

    Hi Dave, first of all thanks for your reply, i dont have spicy food that often as i do not like them that much and i have not had a proper drink in like say about nearly 4 years now so could it still be my uric acid levels..... but thanks for the pointers anyways I have been to my GP before with these symptoms but they have just brushed me off and it really annoyed me to think when someone has genuine problem they wont help you but never the less I am going to make another appointment with my GP and demand that i can see someone on this matter as i cant be dealing with when is the next outburst of this going to break out.... thanks again Jonesy..

    Jonesy, 

    I had 2 Urologists and 3 GP's ignore me until I had to self diagnose myself through research. In my case when I discovered a link between uric acid and prostate problems it felt really good to just know why. Have you discovered Saw Palmetto yet? Many docs suggest taking Saw Palmetto as a natural way to ease prostate issues. Don't get discouraged, I know exactly what you're feeling pain wise and the mental part as well. It WILL eventually get sorted, you just have to go through the steps. How hard is it to get pain relievers there? I was on an opiate called Norco for a long time - excellent for pain relief but can be addictive. Also, I don't know if "Aleve" is a product in UK but see if you can buy it online. Aleve is like Tylenol or advil but better.
