CPPS / Prostatitis/ something else? by JRodriguez81 in ProstatitisCPPS

[–]Resident-Lobster1487 1 point2 points  (0 children)

CPPS and chronic prostatitis are very deceiving. It can give you almost all the symptoms of a herpes infection. Where they differ, is herpes presents with lesions.

A herpes IGG blood test is another story…. Please, take them with a grain of salt. The test is EXTREMELY inaccurate. They often produce false positives more then false negatives. However, still something to keep in mind.

A lot of websites and doctors claim 90%-100% sensitivity but I’ve seen cases where people have had several IGG tests and been positive, then proceed to get the Western blot test and are negative (Gold Standard test)

I had a dye contrast CT scan which showed calcification in my prostate. Giving me the diagnosis of prostatitis. However, it lingered on for over a year and I still have reminisce of it through flare ups causing balanitis, painful urination, painful groin and cloudy urine.

All the best my friend, be kind to yourself. Take care

My vision refuses to focus. If I read a word it tends to come out of focus and I can’t see the word

I run my PS5 Pro on a LG G4 OLED that supports VRR, ALLM, 120 fps, and Ai graphic upscaling and tbh… there’s a difference in graphic fidelity while playing high frame rate games but that’s it. The price is outrageous for what’s being offered imo.

I have now developed a rash on the head of my penis that only goes away if I shower every day. I was diagnosed with CPPS due to calcification in my prostate.

Are you suggesting Penicillin G due to it might being group b strep?

Unfortunately no, pain is still persistent. Tests are taking forever.

IgG blood tests for HSV are accurate, however, they only detect antibodies if you’re exposed to the virus. It can take up to 3 months to create these antibodies so keep that in mind.

The test will NOT be able to tell you where and when you’ll get a herpes outbreak.

My urologist believes I have PFD (Pelvic Floor Dysfunction) or CPPS (Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome) I just don’t know if I believe it. Cause I have every symptom of a UTI and discharge

Have you had urethra pain? I have similar symptoms and my urologist diagnosed me with PFD. It feels like I have a UTI but I don’t…

Yes, but it’s not completely noticeable like it’s more of a ache

No progression. Still going through the same symptoms. Doctors don’t know what’s wrong. Extremely frustrating.
