Wow thanks Anthony.  I did a bit of research on the pulsed RF thing and there was just not much out there. I'll definitely give this doc a call. La Jolla...
Just wondering if anyone heard from or about Ryan. He posted several weeks ago and I believe he was going to have the nerve-stripping procedure. Any news....
I'm sorry I haven't posted before now. Well, the procedure went well, I suppose. I had it done on the 28th. The surgeon said it would be 2-4 wks for recovery....
Being on my 2nd onset with PVP after a 2-year gap, I've gotten pretty good at identifying symptoms and root causes, unfortunately. Right now, I've got a lot...
Hi Scott, I am always one to speculate :) I think I have had something along these lines. Mine is more like twitching almost like "percolating" (sp?). I think...
I have read the last few posts. The sensation of "fluttering" or "vibration" could come from either of the mechanisms mentioned by other group members. My best...
Thanks all for the suggestions, as always. For now, I'm going with Dr. Ellis 2nd point. I'm definitely experiencing ebbing and flowing of inflammation which,...
I think the easiest way to tell if you have neuropathic pain is if you lightly touch a certain spot, does the pain go to 10?! That's the way it is for me. ...
Great point. I've had neuropathic pain in the past, but it was dental about 10 years ago. While in the chair getting a simple filling, my dentist suggested ...

One other thought on that. In my pre-reversal bout with PVP, I recall any urological exam could cause me to hit the ceiling. Once my reversal uro and I...

Bernie, Â It turns out you are right about Yahoo Answers. Â I never noticed this. Once my answer gets five "thumbs down" responses from the "childfree"...
Hi Guys, I just read this from a poster at Yahoo answers in answer to a question whether it was "unmanly" to get a vasectomy Response No it is not "unmanly"....
Yes. But truth be told it isn't as bad as the first year or so after the vas. I really don't think the reversal helped that situation much... but it may...
I'm glad to hear that you've made some progress. I have found that my mental state is best when the trend is positive, even if with a small slope. I can...
What's the best way to find current/recent articles that we PVP sufferers can chime in on Yahoo Answers? I did a search on vasectomy, vasectomy complications,...
I'm sorry if I seem self-important by reporting my own news here, but I am truly trying to see if (a) any of you experienced PVP guys have any thoughts or...
Scott, Your summary is excellent. I hope one of the available approaches helps. As you know, I favor celebrex and testim gel when surgery doesn't fit. As for...
