First off I want to thank this site for
letting me post my question..
My name is steve i'm a 48 year old white
male who in early 2002 started developing
left testicular pain..
After numerous trips to the doctor and
being diagnosed with everything from
uniary tract infections to cancer I
finally found a doctor who seemed to think
he could help me..
I've went the usual route with medications
( I spent almost 3 years straight on
cipro) numerous testicular ultrasounds,
mri, xray, and the usual blood tests and
prostate massage which they said revealed
ureaplasma, ( mayo clinic) which the
current doctor stated was an incorrect
diagnosis.
The doctor suggested a orchidoplasty ( I
believe is the name) as the doctor stated
he thought I was suffering from a type of
torsion..
The initial surgery went well, but then I
developed bleeding which required another
surgery, then after than an infection
which required yet another surgery, then
weeks of packing, I ended up with 4
surgeries in 5 weeks...
The end result,
no help in my origional problem I still
suffer from acute left testicular pain but
since the surgery I now have burning in
the left testicle..
The doctor has stated that he can do
nothing more for me, and now my daily diet
consists of vicodin and other pain
killers, and it's pretty much disabled
me..
any help would greatly be appreciated,
this has pretty much ruined my life
thanks for your time
steve
