Omalizumab removes UCPPS symptoms
Well, n=1 , but I have had a report from an old friend that treatment with omalizumab injections has removed his UCPPS. Here is a list of what is gone: CPPS (I can’t detect it now). Asthma. All allergies to pollen, dust, dander. Dermographism. Urticaria. Itching. I thought I'd note it here for futur...

Men with UCPPS cannot relax pelvic muscles normally
Men without a history of pelvic pain were able to relax their pelvic floor muscles back to baseline after performing voluntary pelvic floor muscle contractions. In contrast, men with CP/CPPS, particularly those with ejaculation-related pain, had an impaired ability to relax their pelvic floor muscl...

UCPPS patients have different neuroinflammatory gene expression
Men with CP/CPPS have a diverse set of neuroinflammatory genes with differential expression compared to controls. Clinical phenotypes have distinct patterns of gene expression. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34532258/ Completely logical findings; it was always going to be the case that UCPPS patie...

Brain can cause inflammation
Scientists in Israel say they have observed exactly how the brain can make the body sick — and believe tweaks in the behavior of gray matter could stop inflammation in the bowel, colon and elsewhere. Researchers at at the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology activated certain combinations of neu...

Re: Malone-Lee, Gill, Kriz — the "embedded infection" scam
Interesting question and answer from Reddit: I went to Malone Lee’s clinic in London and spoke to one of his doctors. He told me that there was an embedded infection caught in biofilm. I’ve read his book on cystitis, and understand the theory. But here’s the thing, their diagnosis was based on the p...

CBD Oil — research vacuum 😣
I have now read several anecdotal reports of CBD oil helping men with UCPPS. Usually the men say they have used tinctures with high CBD content (>15%) and low THC content (<2%). This is an area where research is sorely lacking. Today I read an interesting case history of an old woman with lung cance...

Re: Warning about IC Network
The misinformation just keeps flowing from the IC Network. The latest howler is the claim that: we have a consumer alert about aspartame and cancer. That's what I love to do is do consumer alert stuff. We now know that aspartame is absolutely linked to cancer, no doubt about it, the more you're expo...

Nickel on NGS and the urobiome
The urinary tract has been called a "veritable microbial jungle". In 2020 Dr Curtis Nickel from Canada gave a key lecture on the urinary microbiome or urobiome. He found that in >70,000 urine samples collected, >4,000 species of bacteria were identified, including E. coli being predominant...
