Asthma & CPPS

[billymac]

I have asthma flare ups sometimes where I get short of breath that can last for weeks. When I get short of breath all I'm thinking about is my next breath. I've had chronic prostatitis / chronic pelvic pain syndrome since June of this year. I had an asthma flare up in September for three weeks and just got over one that lasted two weeks. The strange thing is that during these asthma flare ups my chronic prostatitis / chronic pelvic pain syndrome symptoms are almost gone. Could this be because my brain is directing all its attention to being short of breath and not paying attention the CPPS? Could the pelvic muscles be relaxed because my attention is not on them? How much of chronic prostatitis / chronic pelvic pain syndrome do you think is psychological?

Yes, yes, and a lot.

I agree, I have noticed the same thing. But then other times I feel like my mind is still not on my chronic prostatitis / chronic pelvic pain syndrome and I get pain. I've had this since June of this year. My question is if the mind plays a big role in this, then is TP therapy important or beneficial?
