prostatitis candida

by marcusf, Feb 03, 2008 01:25PM
I have suffered with prostatitis for 15 years. Symptoms from pain to disfunction etc.. I tried everything,  anti biotics , prostate massage you name it I tried it.
Some treatments worked temporarily namely injecting anti biotic into prostate and testicles, because the specialist i went to suspected bacteria and yeast - he told me to cut out yeast products for 2 weeks. there was improvement but not for long.
By luck I discovered a candida test and was diagnosed with candida. I followed the body ecology diet by Donna Gates for the last year and am now 90% relieved of my symptoms.
There is no doubt in my mind that many unexplained prostate inflammation could be caused by candida.
I am now free after years of suffering and nearly 20, 000.00 in medical fees. It could have been resolved so simply so long ago but not 1 of any of the doctors i saw even mentioned candida.

I would like to ask why this is not taken seriously by DOCTORS / UROLOGISTS as a possible cause?
Are you aware of candida and if so why are people still suffering?

Kind regards.

I have the same problem. I am 28 and just got this 7months ago. I was given fluconazole and feel better while on it. However not totally. I figured this was prostatitis caused by Candida. The doctors dont seem to believe me. Any advice would be graetly appreciated.

Did doctor ever find bacteria in your prostate before they gave you drugs?  Mine didn't after he got sample from massage, just gave Levaquim 30 days and nothing really changed.

Ask your doc to test for anaerobic bacteria also Don.    Did the EPS massage sample hurt?    How did it feel?

It is not fun.  I am not sure he really got a good sample anyway.

Doc diagnosed me with Calicific Prostatitis. I had inflamation in the bladder as well. It was called Trigonitis. I feel completely better whiule on Diflucan but the effects are temporary as in a 150mg pill is needed a day. One day without it symptoms come back. Let me know what you think.
