O/T - Frequent Urination and Bladder Never Feels Empty

Once the thyroid is saturated with Iodide your prostate is one of the next down the line to absorb the Iodide .... just like breasts for women ... Iodine should also be used.

In other words, if you've taken enough Iodide, it will reach your prostate.

Too bad the common person doesn't know this but instead we hear about breast cancer, prostate cancer, etc. and kick out what remaining Iodine/Iodide we have with flouride, bromide, etc..

So what does this mean? I took 6 drops of SSKI every 3 hours for 48 hours, is this enough to saturate the thyroid and reach the prostate? I don't know what I have, whether it's Nonbacterial Prostatitis, bacterial Prostatitis, Benign prostatic hyperplasia, Prostate cancer... Without knowing this, I cannot risk a prostate massage in case infection spreads.

goten574 - The SSKI is primarily a UTI treatment, although it is still good for the prostate. What you probably need is an IV-C if available to you.

I don't understand what you mean. What is IV-C? I did a Google search but could only find "Inferior Vena Cava Obstruction" which again, I do not understand but it relates to Prostate Cancer.

Is Colloidal Silver worth a try? It's suppose to help prostate conditions, candida and other infections.

I suppose this could even be Candida or would SSKI knock that out? I recenty started experiencing rectal itching which I know Candida can cause. Argh there are so many things this can be, I just need to eliminate them one by one, but they are all linked in some way e.g. Candida can cause Prostatitis.

I want to hang in here.
I´m suffering since a couple of month from bacterial prostate infection.
Goten as I said before you´ll have to do a special test for the prostate to know if there are germs or not. My urin is sterile, but my prostate isn´t.
It makes no sense to ask for infection treatments when your prostate isn´t infected.

chronic prostate infections are really nasty to get rid of, maybe impossible.
I think there are several factors, which are responsible for this.
Most important
1.a lot of ABX don´t penetrate well to the P.
2.some germs for ex. St. aureus form biofilms which reduce the efficiance of ABX from 100-1000 times!
It´s interesting that these biofilms consists of calcium (oxalates??) an Mg.
There are quorum sensing inhibitors which can break up these films, as well.

Till now I´ve tried to kill my germs (ST. aureus) with antibiotics and MMS, without success.
I would be like goten very interested in other treatments to kill germs in the prostate.

At the moment I´m thinking of taking those inhibitors togehter with strong ABX, but maybe there´s a better option than ABX?? (unfortunately MMS is not)

I second goten, what is: IV-C?

Intravenous (IV) ... likely CS is talking about a Vitamin C IV.

Going to see the doctor in a few days. I will ask for a second ultrasound to see if there is urine retention in bladder. I will also ask if it's possible to see a urologist. Is there anything else I should ask? I don't want to ask for a prostate massage in case I have an infection.. how do I eliminate infection of the prostate?

Doctor does not recommend a second ultrasound although I disagree and may request this in the future. I had a digital rectal exam (finger up the ass) although I am not sure what the word "digital" mean in this phrase. Doctor said my prostate is smooth and tiny so this possibly rules out enlarged and inflammed prostate? I had a blood test done for infections and inflammation and that came back fine. My zinc levels were also tested although these were not available when I visited my doctor (not sure why...) I also had a second urine test done for infections and that was fine too.

Doctor says he doesn't recommend it because it's inaccurate but for I will be having a blood test next week to check PSA levels. I know this test doesn't show much (high PSA levels may or may not indiciate prostate cancer, and a low PSA level doesn't rule out prostate cancer either).

I've spoken to two doctors and they both said it is likely anxiety causing this. I am not sure what to do now.

goten574 - The PSA test isn't all that useful for prostate cancer (unless one is under 40), although the PSA is actually useful for something different than cancer, which is an indiction of inflammation.

Goten you may have CPPS- do a google search for it.

I used to have some bladder issues. I had some urinary tract infections (UTIs) and took some rounds of antibiotics. My bladder was touchy after that. It would feel like I had one, but I didn't - I think they call it "cystitis." Anyway, my doctor at the time turned me on to alkalinizing my urine to calm my bladder down--and this can work too if you actually are just getting a real urinary tract infection b/c bacteria have a tough time thriving in an alkaline environment. You put 1 t of baking soda in 8 oz of water and drink it 2-3 times a day and in between chug more water. Then too stay away from acidic substances such as strawberries, oranges, coffee, tea, soda, chocolate, tomatoes, alcohol, etc--anything that would irritate a canker sore in your mouth if you had one. This may help--it sure helped me. You can also use Tri-salts (its a mag/potasium/calcium powder) instead of baking soda--I like that better--it's not salty.

BTW--digital just means with the finger (like, one of the digits on your hand).

Oh and, just like you, I felt like I still needed to pee. It could be one of your supplements or something you're taking regularly pissing off your bladder (no pun intended, but hey, it works, huh?). I hope you get it figured out soon. That issue sucks, I know.

goten574 - Since this issue is not as cut and dry as we hoped, I have a suggestion for treatment.

It's called Frequency specific microcurrent. Here is a list of practioners. This treatment is extremely successful for this kind of issue.
