but in essence, you've been diagnosed as a
tightass. Think
about that for a minute and let it sink in.
You asked for links, I don't know if you have any, and certainly
you are adult enough to do your own Google search, but there's
some evidence in syndromes like this that the sorts of relaxation
and mental biofeedback techniques that work for other, similar
stuff (pain resulting from chronic tension and holding patterns),
can also have benefit in your situation.
I know it sounds all touchy-feely, and it's coming from a drug
addled ex hippie in California, but I have some personal experience
with mysterious pain syndrome, and it helped me a great deal.
You are certainly correct in your assessment of this kind of thing
and the approaches of conventional medicine as being a cluster****.
Mostly, they will bill your insurance until they can't any more, and
then try to get rid of you by pushing you off on somebody else.
You've been warned.

There is a genuine controversy about what prostatitis is among urologists and professionals treating this problem.

And yeah, you might want to consider some alternative plans for a year
or so off the bike..........chronic pain as a way of life is just not living.
I took five years off once, and I'm back riding just fine now..only hurts when I laugh.
