non bacterial prostatitis?

I was dignosed with non bacterial prostatitis of April of 2007. I am still looking for a cure to this on-going condition. My sytpoms are inflamation of my uthrea and like a burning pain on the head of my penis, coupled with lower abdomen burning, pain in my scrotum and flare ups of rectal itch.

I am on my third Urologist. It is very discouraging that the doctors can’t seem to make a correct treatment.

I have taken test after test including a front end scope witch just inflamed my condition. The doctors can’t identify the bacterial causes for the problem and the symptoms wax and wane over time..almost a year now. All my tests come back normal. One Urologist told me I was ok…except I was still suffering from ongoing flare ups.

I have taken antibotics like levaquin for 2 week periods. I am currently taking uroxatral with napoxen…with little relief. Tomorrow I am have another appointment with the Urologist

Any suggetions for some kind of relief would be more then appreciated.
