[QUOTE="BJE, post: 196094, member: 13968"] In early mid January I had a headache, chills and fever along with a mild cough and congestion. I thought it might be covid but they ran two different tests and it was not detected. However on the forth day I woke up with prostate pain which indicated that this may be prostatitis. However, it was odd that prostate symptoms would be so slow to appear. I was given an antibiotic on Friday January 15th and I felt pretty good on Saturday but Sunday evening I started feeling sick again and woke up with a fever Monday morning. I saw my doctor again who switched antibiotics. He conceded that it’s possible that my covid tests were false negatives but that’s unlikely. At any rate I had prostate pain and I’ve had body aches and fever in association with prostatitis before. This time however it doesn’t seem to be responding well to antibiotics. I’m still as of today, February 15th having occasional mild prostate pain. I went to a urologist last Thursday. She sent out a prostate secretion culture which I haven’t heard back in yet. The interesting thing is that I was feeling well and gave blood at the Red Cross on February 5th. They are now testing for covid antibodies. I got the antibody test results today and it was positive. I’m now thinking that it my illness was covid all along and that the prostatitis came from a covid infection of my prostate which would explain why antibiotics have been unsuccessful and why my prostate pain didn’t show up until day 5. So to my question, has anyone heard about prostate infections linked to covid? I found one article saying that there is likely a group of men who are at risk of prostatitis due to the SARS-Cov-2 virus infecting the prostate. However that was the only article I found on it.
