Hi,

I'm in search of advice, so I hope it's relevant to the Group. If not,
any suggestions about another Group would be much appreciated.

For many years I have had poor sleep owing to a frequent need to get up
and pee. Sometimes 4/5 times. Most occasions not much pissing happens.
But there's more to it. What really affects my sleep is the 'piss hard'
associated with it. Without fail, I get one every time. I lie there for
ages tossing and turning with this non-sexual hard until I have to get
up and pee. My body thinks my bladder is full. But it isn't. So I pee a
little and then get into bed and so the cycle repeats each night.
Without fail. I can't remember a night when I didn't have these
symptoms and had a decent nights sleep. I've seen many
doctors/urologists. I've had my prostate felt many times and there's no
enlargement. PSA testing doesn't throw anything up. I've been in for
observation on sleep patterns and had invesigations such as tubes up my
prick and flow tests. I've tried various drugs.

I'm dispairing of a nights sleep.

I searched the net and found prostatitis. It may not be what I have,
but I'm hoping that someone here has heard of my symptoms or can make
suggestions about where I can look to find out more. Any help would be
gratefully received.

Thanks
Paul
