Hey brother:
i feel your pain. Not too long ago I had sex with some chic. I started to have weird symptoms which I tought to be chlamydia. Went to the docs for std check and no chlamydia, gonorreah, herpes, nothing came back positive. I was and wasn't happy with th results, I still don't know what it is.
I tell you something tough, gonorreah is a pretty dramatic disease, is very painful and the discharge is pretty seems to be pretty comon as a pus like yellow thick discharge. I think that the docs would know if you had it. My last tought about my "unknown disease" is that it could be trichonomas. This desease does not usually develops symptoms on men but when it does is supposed to be a whitish or clear discharge, tingling on your shaft and slight burn after ejaculation or urination. It is hard to detect on men tough. If I was you, i'll get to an urologist, possibly in a hospital or close to a lab(that will ensure a lil promptness and better reliability of the results) and I would get the full blown std check including a request to check for trichonomas. If nothing come back positive I would ask for treatment on trichonomas given that it is flagil on one dose and that the trichonomas test is the most unreliable. Sorry for the long letter, I have been doing a lot of research myself. Loquillo

I was dignosed with chlamydia about 2 months ago. I told my previous sexual partner (ex) and went with her to get tested, but her test came back negative! She was tested again, and again the test came back negative! She has symptoms as well.

My current partner was tested, came back positive and was treated with a single 1gram dose of azithromycin. Two weeks later she was tested again and came back negative.

When I was tested I came back positive. I took a single 1gram dose of azithromycin and I felt better for a day or so. But then a few days later the symptoms came back worse than before! So I went back to the doctor and told them that the treatment didn't work so he gave me another single 1gram dose of azithromycin and a five day (2 pills a day) dose of doxycycline. My ex was also medicated again this way and still feels symptoms (the girl that tested negative twice.)

i felt better for about 2 weeks but now I feel like the symptoms are coming back! They are mild, so I think I may be paranoid but i'm still freaking out! I have to wait for my doctors app. To get tested again and I still have to wait for the results. Arrgghh!

I've also read that sometimes bacteria can "mutate" and become resistant to antibiotics. I really hope that I don't have some strange version of chlamydia. I really wish that I was in better health already.

So anyway. I feel you buddy. I kind of understand what it's like to not understand whats wrong with you and why your not getting better. Hang in there. Positive thinking = positive immune system!

Thanks heaps fella's for your responses. I really appreciate it. To update you guys on how its going, I went to another doctor again, and he said he seems to think I have a form of non-gonnococcal urethritis (i think its the name for chlamydia in males), even though my test was negative. Anyways, he prescribed a full three weeks hit of 'doxycycline'. Finishing the last capsule yesterday, I must say that I feel a lot lot better than previously. However, it is still not 100%. Just like you 'jmsocal', I am still scared that I also have some 'weird' version of this std. All the burning and everything has gone, its just the only symptoms I still have is a slight urge to urinate more frequently than I should (usually straight after urniating), and also an annoyance and aching of the shaft of my penis near the base, usually after masturbating (softly)....I never ever got this pain in the past, only since the start of all the other symptoms of this 'unknown std'.

Im going to get tested on monday again for the works, but im not really sure whether I want a positive or negative result hey. If something is positive it means its still not going away, but if its negative that means I still have something but they dont have a clue what......Aaarrrggghhh. I havnt slept with anyone since before the onset of symptoms, and all I want is to be able to live life worry free again, and to get my sex life back on track.

'loquillo' - thanks for your advice mate. I will take it up depending on what the result is of this test in a few days.

And 'jmsocal', love your finishing sentence (true in many cases too) "hang in there. Positive thinking = positive immune system!".

Good luck with it all fella's. Hope to hear postive updates from you guys. Later!

My best friend who is a girl had a bacterial infection called bacterial vaginosis. Although a different thing, it's similar to a yeast infection and also caused by similar things (it is not necessarily contracted like an std, but developed inside the woman). Anyway, her boyfriend started having almost identical symptoms to what you have described, however, men are not supposed to feel any symptoms of b v whatsoever. All of his test results came back negative. I'm not sure what drug they put him on, but it might be best to talk to a doctor about what to do to cure b v that has been passed to a man. That could be the magical solution to your problem. It is very very very rare for a male to get symptoms of bacterial vaginosis, but it has happened, and if all of your test results came back negative and even after taking doxicycline you still feel symptoms, I would definitely talk to a doctor and see what he/she can do!

Don't know if anyone is still following this, but if so I would appreciate knowing your results. I have had somewhat of the same thing and battleing it for 10 months now!!! I don't have any pain, did get epididymitis (swollen left testicle) which they say is caused by std's (chlamydia, gonnorrhea, trich) however, all tests were negative multiple times for both me and my partner. I don't have pain any more, but do have a clear discharge that comes out periodically, sometimes thick, other times runny like urine in small amounts. We have both tried all meds, zithromax, flagyl, doxy, etc. Nothing clears it up and the Dr.'s tell me it's in my head.

If people are still following this please let me know if you found a cure!!!

Thanks

I once had bacteria vaginosis, it can come from shaving, to tight of panties \ pants... Almost anything. I t is very possible for a man to contact this from a partner. So check all possibilities, I felt like crap for days till I saw a doc, he sent me home with 3 pills and as soon as I took the first one I felt better within a hours time. And all symptoms were gone. Discharge, cramps, odors. Its only a bacterial infection ... No biggie! But it is contagious! Good luck

I am having the same issues, but i believe that it has progressed and has changed my body. About one and a half years ago i had unprotected sex. That night i felt a tingle in my urethral. And i noticed in a couple of weeks that there were some white discharge that would come out of my penis. I went in to test for gonorrhea and chlamydia, and it came back negative. I didn't believe the test results because of what i feeling and could see. So i went to a different place to get tested again and yet the results came negative. The symptoms were still there but since the test came back negative i tried to ignore it. A few months pass and my my penis started to change, i noticed that the veins on my penis were thicker as if filled with some type of gel, and there was a white solid lump when i would be erected. Then a bigger lump started to appear near my anus so i went in for some more testing. This time for HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea and chlamydia. Once again the test came back negative. The infection started to move through my body, it felt as if it were going to my heart. My body would start aching and my joints would feel a lot of tension. Then i started to notice my skeleton changing. My bones would be more brittle and my muscles have shrunken, the veins would protrude now throughout my body just as it looked on my penis. My skin is a bit yellow and sometime it would turn gray. I would feel very weak and fatigued all the time. My hair started to fall out and now i have some warts on my scrotum and also my hands. I went to two different places to have that checked out and they tell me that it is not genital warts but rather a type of fungus that can be dealt with by an over the counter cream. I have tried the cream and it is better now but i still itch and it seems like more warts are forming on my hands. That is not the worst of it. Lumps are forming on my head and also on my ribs. The doctors are telling me that all the things i have are normal. I have recently tested for Hep B and Hep C to rule out all possible STDs. The results are not in yet but no matter what this is i feel a sense of liberation. Before i came across this infection i was a shallow person, who only took things for face value. Now that i am flawed i understand myself more than ever. I was not able to find true love as a perfect vitruvian man, so maybe now as the ugly truth i will be able to find what i am looking for in life. What a journey it has been. I am thankful for it because, I now understand why beauty is only skin deep. Good luck to the rest of you all. I hope your questions will be answered.
