About 3 weeks ago "after using antibiotics" for a sinus infection I came down with Chronic Bacterial Prostatitis I was on Cipro for 2 1/2 weeks and stated Levaquin a few days ago. The inflamation is going away, but I still have a burning "ocassional" sensation when urinating and after ejactulation. I've read enough to know there's no cure, but I'm hoping for a prolonged remission. This whole problem has raised many question for me. Has anyone responded well to antibiotic treatment? And how can one judge their improvement? Thanks Michae

Some people respond to antibiotics. You might ask about prostatic massage, good luck.

Research Candida. I do not know if this is hurting you or not, but google candida and prostatitis and read up.

I'm beginning to think I have Chronic non bacterial Prostatitis too. Is there anything I can do other than regular visits to get my butthole fingered? It is extremely painful every time the urologist has done it. Not something to look forward to.

HI. I am also on Levaquin for a urinary tract infection. I have been on it for four days. I had what was like a soreness when urinating. Today I urinated & there was blood after and my stream was weak. My urine was clear. The third time I urinated I felt something funny & then my urine stream all of a sudden was normal af=gain. I have gone four times since & do not have any pain. there is still a slight trace of blood but, it is not much and very light. I think that maybe you have probably passed something also. It should clear up soon. I am told to drink Cranberry Juice. Maybe it will help you.
