Effects of Chlamydia causing misery.

I was diagnosed with Chlamydia last year after having it for two years. I had painful joints and painful urination but my Doctor never put two and two together, initially. I was treated for it but the pain remained - I was told the pain should subside but it didn't, so I was treated again. The pain remained. Painful urination, painful ejaculation and occasionally sore testes.

I was given several antibiotics and none of them relieved pain and if they did it was only effective for a day or two. Doxycycline, Erythromycin and Norfloxican, all for several weeks if not months. Tried Ibuprofen, three times a day for three months, to no avail.

I had a cystoscopy which showed no damage and they suggested no further treatment and said it was probably a bout of prostatitis. My Doctor gave me Norfloxican given for a month or so, which gave no relief.

I've been to 6 Sex Clinics and I've been tested for every STI under the sun and I'm "definitely negative" for all of them, as they've said.

Symptoms: Painful urination, painful ejaculation (which lack of enjoyment during orgasm), short stinging, usually after urinating, teste pain, a swollen penis tip, split stream of urine/sperm, lack of pressure when peeing (though they said there is no stricture and that my flow is strong, but it's much weaker than it was before).

My doctor has pretty much said "There's nothing wrong with you, there's nothing more we can do." But it's causing my life hell. I drink at least 2 litres of water a day, plenty of cranberry juice and other fruit juices. I don't drink alcohol at all, I try to avoid milk and don't drink caffeinated drinks.

Anything advice would be fantastic. I have very little faith in my Doctor's and it's causing my life hell. It's been dreadful over the last two years. And as I said, it was well over a year ago I was treated for it - so you think the healing would have started and it wouldn't be more painful than it was a year ago?

Please advise!

Re: Effects of Chlamydia causing misery.

If you have been with this same doctor over the past two years except for his referrals then go to another doctor and keep going to different doctors until you find one that can help you. good luck.

Re: Effects of Chlamydia causing misery.

I've been to 4 different GPs, 6 different Sex Clinics (including a consultation) and 3 urologists. I'm very much at a loss at what to do. Thank you for the help though.

Re: Effects of Chlamydia causing misery.

I'm sorry for bumping my own thread, but is there anyone out there that has good advice for this? Any advice would help. It's making my life awful.
