Hello all,

Currently I am unemployed as I am a full time student living on an extremely tight budget and eating meal to meal. Eight months ago I had hooked up with a girl and recieved fellatio. About a month later, I had started exhibiting symptoms of a wavy discomfort in the groin area so I had gone to a doctor and got treated for what was thoguht to be a urinary tract infection (Cipro Antibiotics were prescribed). Symptoms had disappeared for about two weeks but then returned and I had returned to doctor to recieve twice the prescription of cipro to kill it once and for all.

Symptoms again returned and this time I was tested for chlamydia and sent to a urologist. Test was negative. I was given one full month of doxycycline. Doxycycline cleared up all the symptoms for the duration of my time being on it, but, after treatment ended, two weeks later symptoms returned.

Again, I return to urologist, he gives me another month of doxycycline, same thing occurs. Because I am a student with no health innsurance and virtually no money, I do not know what to do. I suppose I shold get all sorts of tests done to test for a resistent strain of gonnorhea, prostate cancer, and so on, but I couldn't afford it at the time (I am an american). I still can't afford it.

Right now, I have a throbbing "pressure" in my prostate area, bladder area, and urethra. It is a painful feeling. My shaft seems to always be tilted to either the right or the left when the infection seems present (though when treating it, all the pressure goes away and I feel perfectly normal). My worry is that if I continue to get the wrong treatments I'll merely be creating a super-bug of what ever it is that is in my sistem. Doxycycline is a kill all antibiotic that is capable of curing everything from syphilis to gonorhea to chlamydia yet this has returned.

I think i've narrowed down the possibilities to prostate cancer or a resistent strain of gonorrhea which I think I'll get myself tested for, but I am virtually positive that this is bacterial due to its responsiveness to antibiotics and lack of "surface symptoms".

I don't know. I don't have money. I need suggestions for what to do. I'm only 19 years old and living on my own.

I responded to your post in the other topic, but to add to it try not taking any medicine for a week. When I had this exact same problem I was told that the cipro and doxy may have killed the "good bacteria" in my system. So I waited for my body to regain it's natural defense and began taking the medicine again. Also do you think about the pain a lot? The doctor told me it may all be in my mind but I didn't believe it. Then when I accepted the pain forever and focused on other things in my life, the pain went away forever. I recently received oral again since I figured the first time was a one time deal, but now I feel discomfort in my testicles again and I am not sure if I am imagining it or if there is an infection. However there is no discharge or serious pain so that is why I think it may be in my mind. I plan to get checked out again but man it really sucks waiting in the waiting room for hours around depressed people.

I wanted to update you since I just received a call from my doctor who said my blood and swap test all came out negative. I wonder if all of this is really in our minds? Because my lower body feels like I have a fever and I feel like there is tingling going on but the tests were negative so perhaps our minds are actually fooling us? I wanted to let you know so in case you have the same thing maybe if you try to ignore the pain it would go away.
