Inflamation (bacterial or non-bacterial prostatitis) is a major problem for thousands of patients. It appears not to be fatal, so impacts one's happiness, career, outlook and family life that one sometimes finds himself wishing it were so. In all Hopkins bulletins, alerts etc. there is almost NOTHING about it. I did find that it finally has a name: "Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome,"---nice to have, but paltry consolation to the poor wretch who suffers from it! Special Report # 4 addressed the problem, but offered little hope---just a few treatments that "may" help. Has any progress been made in this area? Is anyone even trying?
