Online Survey CP/CPPS

Post by nick45wood »

Dear Forum Members,

My name is Dr. Nicholas Wood and I am a clinical psychologist and researcher, based at the University of Hertfordshire, near London, England.
I am supervising a 2nd masters student (Mica Rosen), who has posted an online survey on the management of CP/CPPS - this research and survey has received University ethical approval (see below). If you have any queries please contact me at <[email protected]>. I have active CP/CPPS illness since March 2009 and am looking to try and extend research into the area.

The survey is short and due to end 20 July 2013.

Sincerely, Nick Wood

"Dear forum members,
I am an MSc student at the University of Hertfordshire and I am currently
completing a research project under the supervision of Dr Nicholas Wood.
My research will involve a survey to be completed by men with Chronic
Prostatitis/ Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome (CP/CPPS). The survey looks at pain
management, associated emotional factors and coping styles of men with CP/CPPS.

If you would be interested in contributing to this research by completing the
survey please follow the link below:

Your participation in this research will be greatly appreciated. Please note
that your responses will be submitted anonymously and further to this will
remain confidential and only viewed in full by myself (researcher) and Dr
Nicholas Wood (supervisor)

Please note, the survey will close on the 20th July 2013 after which point no
more responses will be able to be submitted.
Thank you in advance for your contribution to this research."

Good luck, can I post it on some CP/CPPS groups on facebook if it's ok?
Age: 30 | Onset Age: 19| Symptoms: Urinary frequency, Urinary urgency, constant 24/7 sensation in the penis (in the tip mainly - burning/pressure/discomfort/"wetness"), Nocturia, discomfort and pressure in the pelvic region radiating to the abdomen and becoming severe as time passes since last urination (resolved in 2014 by myofascial release), Stream velocity is somewhat slow and prolonged with an average velocity of ~13cc/min (and max 18cc/min) found in flowmetry test when bladder is filled with 500cc at age 25 (I always feel like I need to press my abdomen to urinate, improved later on when using alpha blockers)| Helped By: especially MYOFASCIAL RELEASE (especially in the areas of hips and abdomen) - generally resolved my abdominal aches, but penile symptoms remained the same| Worsened By: Coffee and possibly some other food as well| Other comments: Quercetin and acupuncture helped me no more than a placebo effect. Age 25-26: Diagnosed with indirect inguinal hernia and medium hydrocele at the same side. After operation many of the acute symptoms disappeared, but the chronic urinary and pelvic symptoms remained much the same.
