Same passion as cocktail creation, just don't want or can't have the alcohol. Anything goes (including alcoholic drinks, but at least try the recipe without alcohol and see what you get...)

2023.10.28 17:59 Competitive_Card_649 Sit pain and other questions.
So history is 3 bouts of prostatitis over past ten years. First from bike riding and sex multiple times in one week on vacation. Started getting uncontrolled urgency, went to doc, got levaquin and boom urgency gone after first pill but 3 days of levaquin and calfs stung and froze up while on a run and had to walk back to gym. Looked up levaquin and stopped immediately due to chance of permanent damage. Doc then gave me bactrim, doxy (throat closed up), amoxy, cefdinir, (months of ABs) no relief so decided to stop all AB crap and few months went by and started to get better. Took about 1- 1 1/2 yrs to go from peak to 0-5% always around to remind me it was there but life was good. My stages were after first month or so pain escalated to interrupt sleep level, needed ami and klonopin (stronger) to even have a chance at sleeping, then could sit for a bit, then longer, then felt annoyance then finally gone over course of year and half.
5 years of life again and without knowing bike riding was culprit for sure the first time decided to go for a ride on vacation and boom next day funny feeling and problem happened all over again. Skipped ABs altogether this time since they did nothing and just went to the quercetin, graminex, NSaids for flare ups, ami and klonopin again for sleep. Sitting again was main pain, didnt have all those other symptoms except when hurting felt like need to pee even though just went pee recently. 2-2 1/2 years to go away from 100% to 0-5%. Happy again for past 3 years or so.
Things I noticed to keep from aggravation, don't have sex day before or day of long ride, don't sit in cushy or super hard chairs for long, don't sleep in soft cushy or engulfing foam type beds home or on vacation, keep sex to twice a week (any more caused body to say hey i could come back) and it would take few days to calm down. Don't ride a bike ever, or jet ski, or horses, or anything that bounces perineal area period.
Shoot forward to August this year 2023 :
Sex three times in week, alcohol, etc. not sure. Sitting long ride 3 1/2 hour ride each way to Memphis
Soft mattress at hotel for 6 nights (similar to riding in car for 8 hours a day maybe) . But boom it was back.
Symptoms:
At first just pain around inguinal canal, while standing still, and sitting could last little while hour or so, no trouble at all sleeping at first which was different from previous times.
Feeling of buzzing in abdomen, bladder, numbness and golf ball in butt.
Month or so went by and pain while sitting for any amount of time. sleeping started to get difficult, started amitriptyline but still not as bad as 2012, 2018
Basically different this time vs past two times.
couple weeks ago weak flow, buzzing/tingling feeling in bladder, dribble pee, hard to start, harder at night to get started, feeling need to pee right after pee
Seems amitriptyline helps a bit, did 10mg then 20 then 25, went to Urologist who roughed up prostate with aggressive check, pain for four days after that, but oddly enough most of pee issues kind of went away (flow better but not great, stream bigger but not racehorse, fear of not being able to pee gone) BUT now sleep needed klonopin level help. Went to PT first session ok and had good day after two days of tension from internal work she did. Then went to second session week later and she got maybe too aggressive and boom hurts like heck.
Currently:
Can't sit for any real length of time except in knees up and tailbone on ground. If wife drives car I have to sit in passenger seat with tailbone basically on seat and legs bent at knees up on dash. After hour or more rides have to compose myself bent over and walk for tenth of mile before pain kind of subsides enough to get rid of pain. Walking I have virtually no pain except tweak of right nut like guitar string sting every now and then. If I could stand all day and sleep standing up I would be fine.
I don't have all the symptoms others seem to have like urgency, multiple times per hour, usually can last for hours (2-4 between urination) no pain at tip, no pain after ejaculation except day later prostate could be aggravated like an overworked muscle that you might pull at gym and take it easy on for week or so. I limit sex to every two weeks minimum as it always seems to aggravate things (price I am willing to pay for faster cure plus it seems two weeks and penis says hey I have to release and grows multiple times per night and stings/throbs). Coffee once in morning doesn't seem to bother me as experimented days on and off. Skipping liquor altogether mainly due to combo effect with ami or klonopin. Take all the supplements Beta Sitosterol, Swanson Graminex Flower Pollen, Doctors best magnesium glycinate, Now Quercetin with Bromelain, vit d/k3 combo, Dmannose (at first when bladder was buzzing), NAC and L-glutamine which protect stomach if taking lots of Ibuprofen (600mg at time 3 times day always with food/milk), Use Now foods for most supplements (trusted).
Questions:
Anyone else have mainly the sitting problem and less of the other issues? I almost would rather have lots of peeing, etc vs the lack of ability to sit which prevents car trips, restaurants, basically homebound except gym, supermarket trips, etc.
Why does it always seem to start of slow and not so bad then has to absolutely escalate to high pain/issues before taking forever to calm down even if you start being safe, sitting, supplements, etc right away? It is like it has to go right to top of pain/issues before slowwwwwwwwly going away.
Why don't they (scientists) take levaquin, cipro and try to isolate anti-inflammatory properties and skip AB part and they may have a cure or at least something to take safely to alleviate all symptoms while you heal over time? I swear levaquin kills the inflammation instantly (at least for me) but the floxing danger is why you can't chance taking it.

2019.11.21 19:28 Deroita PLEASE HELP me solve this medical MYSTERY (long)
I have been trying to solve my mom's medical mystery for years and have taken her to a dozen doctors who tell me her ailments are coincidental and unrelated, and it seems nobody can help me.
My mom is 67 years old. She has had minor emotional problems her entire life, including anxiety, fears of abandonment, separation anxiety, etc. Dating back to childhood. She lost both her parents as a young adult, and had severe post partum depression 40 years ago. She was a stay at home mom and functioned wonderfully for 30 years, and in the last 10-15 years, her emotional problems have become significantly more severe, (since her children were out of the house and she was alone all day), culminating in textbook Borderline Personality Disorder in the last 5 years or so. Multiple doctors have confirmed that she displays all of the diagnostic criteria for BPD, and in moments of lucidity, she herself admits this.
A few years ago she began drinking heavily and for roughly 1-2 years, she drank hard liquor in massive quantities (like a liter of vodka a day - she is 4'9" and weighs 115 lbs), when we spilled out the liquor, she began drinking Listerine in large quantities until she could buy more liquor. At the same time, she was abusing Valium, and a cocktail of other medications prescribed (Zoloft, Risperidone, Gabapentin, etc) to her by psychiatrists who wrote scripts for drug after drug, without any understanding of what was actually wrong with her. In addition, she has an amazing ability to turn on and off her BPD style "meltdowns" and "episodes" so she convinces the psychiatrists that the meds are helping her, in order to get more. When we got her to stop drinking (roughly Fall 2017) she started abusing OTC meds such as Benadryl, Sominex, melatonin, and other cold meds that she says “take the edge off.” The alcohol and med abuse were all in pursuit of fixing what she claims is overwhelming anxiety 24/7. We finally took her off all meds (since she was abusing them all and they weren't helping) and (with her neurologist) gave her a placebo that she could pop as often as necessary (Thiamine) and told her it would help with anxiety. She then abused that, taking up to 1000mg a day of it. A Neuropsychiatrist then prescribed a very low dose of Prozac, thinking it might help even her out. It didn't. She still occasionally takes benadryl.
In the last 2 years, she has developed a SEVERE short term memory issue. She does not remember anything short term anymore (her long term memory is intact). She will ask the same question 6 times in a single minute, and if given a hint, she usually still does not remember. Her cognitive function is severely impaired. She can no longer execute simple tasks. For example she has trouble cooking meals she has been making for 40 years and cannot follow a recipe, has trouble following the car GPS. Or she will walk into the supermarket with a list of 5 items and walk out with $200 in groceries but not the ones on the list, or call from the store claiming to be "frightened and disoriented." She walks around all day long looking for things she misplaced (her purse, her phone), back and forth room to room, obsessed with finding these things, only to eventually find them, move them to somewhere else, and then start looking for them all over again five minutes later. She often does not know what month it is or even what season it is (she will go out and buy holiday gifts for her grandchildren in October and be confused as to why she can’t find holiday wrapping paper in the stores), or if you ask her what month it is she will say she doesn't know or guess a month in the wrong season. When she is in social settings she is able to feign cognition and act normal, attempts to participate in conversations, etc. When she is home she stares blankly into space or at the TV without having any idea what is going on around her.
For approximately 40 years, she has suffered from chronic severe UTIs (much worse in the last 5 years) despite continued use of antibiotics and OTC Azo. She has also been diagnosed as having an immunodeficiency, and about 6 years ago she had a random bout of Herpes Esophagitis that resulted in her being hospitalized for several days. She has had skin issues (recurrent sores on her arms and legs and torso), circulatory issues (Raynaud’s Syndrome), and hematology issues (if she bumps her hand on something she have a giant bruise or will bleed profusely). About 35 years ago she also had a head trauma (car accident where her head went into the windshield). For roughly 25 years she took asprin every morning, used Afrin type nasal spray 20 times a day, and took melatonin every night to go to sleep. She went through menopause late (60).
She has had a battery of cognitive tests and scans/MRIs and the results have shown no Alzheimer's or dementia, and no alcohol related brain damage, but rather have shown an improvement in memory categories, and a decline in executive function. The diagnosis from the cognitive testing is Mild Cognitive Impairment. She has had tons of CBCs and blood work ups showing no vitamin deficiencies or anything similar. She has a family history of Multiple Myeloma (her mother and 2 uncles). Her current neurologist believes that the memory/cognitive impairment is a result of the depression and mental illness and internal turmoil she suffers from (because she can't focus and doesn't listen). But we think there is something else going on, neurologically or otherwise physiologically. There are just too many things going on that cannot be coincidental.
There are so many different things happening that we have not been able to find a doctor who understands all of it, and she is getting worse day by day. Her BPD "episodes" (crying, screaming, incessant texting, calling, emailing) are now constant - no longer weekly episodes but now a constant state of being with only short spurts of normal behavior in social settings or when she is playing with her grandchildren. Her cognitive function is getting worse every day, and I would say her mental state is in crisis mode 85-90% of the time.
She has never been able to keep a therapist or psychiatrist for more than a short time (or any type of professional) because she has behavioral outbursts, or starts fights with them, threatens to sue them, gets kicked out of their offices, etc. This applies to basic service providers like painters or accountants. She has a tumultuous interpersonal relationship with everyone.
She has done 3 stints in a hospital partial hospitalization program, which is a mental health day program that focuses on BPD and addiction. The program has not helped her at all, except for the fact that she shows minor improvement when she is busy all day doing something. She cannot do a DBT program because she can’t follow the skills lessons, cannot do the homework, and can’t remember what is taught in order to apply it. One of the biggest obstacles we have with her is that we cannot find anything for her to do during the day. She sits home alone all day long every single day with no activity and no interaction. We tried getting her a job and several volunteer jobs but she got fired on the first day from all of them (basically as soon as they realize something is not right). We tried getting her into an adult day program but cannot find one appropriate for her since she is too high functioning for adult day care or an Alzheimer’s program, but not high functioning enough to volunteer at one.
She still drives on her own (passed a neurologist ordered driving test) and cares for her self independently with no problem.
I know in my heart there is a connection between the UTIs, immunodeficiency, skin sores, and cognitive impairment. I will go to the ends of the earth to try to help her. In a short time she went from being mother of the year to being an unstoppable force of destruction in our lives and a shell of a person. I am desperate to treat her.
PLEASE HELP!

2016.07.07 18:06 sadgurl14 Stopping Bactrim after one dose.
Friend was prescribed Bactrim yesterday for prostatitis. He is supposed to take 2 doses/day for 10 days. He took one dose last night, is feeling better, and wants to stop taking it as he has a wedding over the weekend and wants to drink. Plan is to start the meds again on Sunday.
I think this is a dumb idea and he should carry on taking the antibiotics for the full course, but maybe he can get away with stopping after just one dose.
Two questions here:

I think this is a dumb idea and he should carry on taking the antibiotics for the full course, but maybe he can get away with stopping after just one dose.
Two questions here:
- How bad is it to stop antibiotics after one dose, to restart the same treatment a few days later?
- How bad is it to drink alcohol on Bactrim? Can he get away with drinking beers and staying away from hard liquowine?
