Prostatitis treatment as a novel insight into Finasteride related problems

.

hi, i have finished m treatment few days ago will update u in a few weeks. i have done 30 treatments but more is required usually. Cant say anything regarding improvements as i feel worse on these antibiotics.

:astonished: Another name i didn’t know was out there, jesus man, a lot of guys will be coming back soon. You say ā€˜usually more are needed’ but why isn’t Georgiadis clarifying whether more are needed? surely it would make sense to do another ultrasound before the patient leaves to confirm how much inflammation/ bacteria has been reduced.

No surprise you are feeling worse. Antibiotics kill the good bacteria in your intestinal tract, leading to upset stomach and diarrhea. I’m looking forward to seeing how you are doing after you are done with the pills

Yeah ive been on bactrim the past 2 weeks and my stomach has been off. Suppose thats a good sign…kinda.

People hi.
I was away because my work is intense in the summers.
I am steady with erection quality and strength.
I don’t feel extreme pleasure though, but lately i was bit by a fucking tick… Yeah and guess where??? On my dick. So i have a stupid lump on it to take care too with some mild antibiotic. This makes my stomach a bit sick.
Its strange that 4 antibiotics powerful enough to kill me didn’t affect me, apart from fatigue and this shit messes up my stomach so badly.

Anyways, regarding overall improvement, i am steady for the last 3-4 weeks. With erections having improved more than i expected though. So is fullness of penis. I like that.

Testicles continue to bother me, yet less as time goes by. I don’t stress so much about it lately, all year long was a killer. Now i only think of it once per week or twice.
But since i still am not 100% with my testicular atrophy issue stopping i am not completely satisfied.

So i guess Dr.G was correct in me needing more treatments yet i think that some vitamins should be added now to improve immune response since i have nothing else to do or no more money and psychology to travel again to Kos. Some vitamins though make inflammation worse. I have to experiment with that…

Take care ppl

cytochrome’s story is interesting. He had recovered completely ( according to him) after using DM but got sick after starting fin again. Did DM fix autoimmune (and inflammation caused by it as well?) response for good? I don’t know untill we really confirm autoimmune through some medical tests.

Just because dexamethasone has helped people it doesn’t mean it’s the immune suppression that’s causing the benefit. Cytochrome, today has recovered to a satisfactory degree by the way.

ok if not immune suppression then what? would you explain?

Adrenals…

So did you ever have good pleasure since you started the treatment? I thought you said you had good libido (sex drive) which would mean at least ā€œgood pleasureā€ right?

My biggest concern is a total lack of sex drive since I started that drug.

Hi solonjk, glad to gear you are still going strong. I was curious, if you have testicular atrophy whether you plan to have hormones tested. Presumably your testosterone levels will be lower than they should be, correct?

I think solon was writing about improvements after only a few treatments and improvements reached a plateau. I can’t verify this though since he deleted his posts as you know

how dm is related to adrenals?

Oh shit bit by a tick on the dick rotflmao. :laughing:

Would anybody be prepared to say how much there completed treatment cost? ideally specifying the cost of each element of the trip. Anyone that managed to get a good loan in the UK also PM me.

3000 euros for the standard therapy including 30 sessions and the initial TRUS.
500 euros for the meds (just in case : After 2 weeks I just paid 80 euros for them, but it depends on your reactions)
1000 euros for a standard accomodation in Kos (some share it to cut prices).
500 euros to fly to Kos from Paris (might be cheaper from London)

5000

Thank you Claro, i will note those prices down for future reference.

I just want to give an update. I am also in Kos for more than two weeks already and I have had 17 treatments. So far I have not seen any improvement. However, we were told that it takes time for effects to show up (hopefully!). I am still very skeptical and have my doubts about prostatitis being the cause for our ordeal (since I have been to four urologists in my home country all saying I do not have prostatitis or any inflammation whatsoever). Nevertheless, there are some guys here who have seen some improvement (e.g. in morning erection).

If anybody has questions please send me a pm.

It’s… it’s really bad !
[Size=4]sorry, just a private joke lol[/size]

keepup, you should come with us to the beach so you not over think of this
main improvements are supposed to occur after treatment, as you know

I myself have had some improvements which I did not expect so early, as I only did 10 treatements (penile size & tissue, morning erections). But anyways it’s too early to say it’s working or not. For the moment my only goal is to complete the treatment, as I almost gave up because of Cipro side effects which were SO STRONG on me. But now I am on glimbax and it seems that I tolerate it well.
