[net.med] prostatitis?

dir (02/05/83)

Have any men had success in being treated for prostatitis,
an inflamation of the prostate?  This problem is extremely 
difficult to treat given the fact that antibiotics do not 
concentrate well in the prostate.  This problem typically
affects men in their 30's to 40's.

I've been bothered by this condition off and on for several years.
Apparently the only medical treatment is long-term antibiotics
(6-9 months), and even that doesn't always work.  I guess
I'm looking for the magic cure, something like "Drink
pistachio nut tea for three nights and eat freeze-dried
peaches for a full month, and you shall be cured (permanently)."

Any suggestions (via personal mail) would be appreciated.
