I am a fellow Canadian...after years of antibiotic roulette, my physician
has me on a regimin of naprosyn and biweekly prostatic massage...(thank
goodness for OHIP, my physician says he gets $29 every time he sticks his

antibiotics....my prostatitis tends to flare up now and again...but it did

worth every penny.
I had tried other anti-inflamatories, like vioxx...they did nothing.
