Dear Dr. WuJiang,
About three weeks ago I addressed the question of antibiotics penetrating into the the prostate (in response to your post). You did not reply then. Do you care to discuss this matter now?
Thank-you...... JWP

WuJiang (wu@xxxxxxxxxxxx) has written on this Newsgroup, several times, the following:
".....Antibiotic treatment:
The prostate's surface is surrounded by a fat encircle. It is a
barrier for medicine to permeate the prostate . So most of the
antibiotic can't crack this barrier to reach high concentration.
Pathogenic bacteria easily adapt themselves to the antibiotic, and
resist the antibiotic . At the same time, the antibiotic kills your
body's useful germs, lowering your resistance to disease and making it
more difficult for treatment......"
Dear Dr. WuJiang,
A couple of weeks ago (12/11/2008 9:12 AM) I replied to this theory, which, in my opinion, is completely erroneous.
Did you read my posting?
"Just-in-case", I will copy it here:
We here in Tucson have proved that not to be the case. We have
shown that most antibiotics do indeed penetrate into the prostate
in adequate levels to kill bacteria in most patients with chronic
prostatitis.
By the way, antibiotics enter the prostate from the blood vessels,
capillaries, which are within the prostate. That is exactly the
same way that antibiotics enter into other glands and organs in
the body. They do not migrate from the outside through the "fat
which encircles the prostate".
Newsgroups are for discussion of ideas, so it would be most appropriate if you did respond. Clearly our thoughts on this subject are "contradictory" and I believe that patients would learn from a "dialog" between us. Therefore, please try to find time to respond.
Thank-you.
Yours,

Dr. John,
If you only want to talk to 1 person, use email ... Now, do not sulfa drugs pass through fat tissue? What about Levaquin? (sp?)
