Prostate Cancer ?

I have recently been to a doctor with the following symptoms

Passing water several times at night,Tenderness in pubic area and around the area between the testicles and anus.

In addition I have had a tenderness / bruising feeling in my backside just above the anus and spreading both sideways and up my lower back.

I am having difficulty walking with stiffness in my hips and lower back.

In addition to this I get intermittent pain in testicles aand in the penis.

My Doctor did a PSA which came out at 0.3 and a DRE which he said showd an enlarged prostate.

I have been on Dioxyline and Finestride for 2 months and no improvement.

I recently have noticed an enlarged Lymph node in my groin and am now concerned that I have prostate cancer.

I am 51 yo and there is a history of prostate enlargement in the family.

My Doctor has given me a 3 month course of the above tablets and indicated to go back after this

Could you please advise as to whether enlarged lymph nodes are a symptom of prostatitis or have I got prostete cancer

Sounds like, Chronic prostatitis! prostatitis is treated with a long course (6 - 12 weeks or longer) of antibiotics. Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (Bactrim or Septra) and ciprofloxacin (Cipro) are commonly used. Other antibiotics that may be used include: Carbenicillin, Erythromycin, Nitrofurantoin,
Tetracycline. Most antibiotics do not get into the prostate tissue well.

Some herbs are most effective they are saw palmetto (to improve the overall health of the prostate), Echinacea (as a general immune-booster), nettle root (for additional prostate support), cramp bark and chamomile (for painful spasms), and the Ayurvedic herb Crataeva (to improve bladder function).

It's a long list, but it's unlikely you would need to take all of these herbs. You should work with a physician skilled and knowledgeable in natural medicine to find the specific combinations and dosages that work best for you. To locate such a physician in your area, contact the American College for Advancement in Medicine  if you google it will give you a web address
