On Oct 4 around 1:30 am I regrettably had unprotected sex while drunk. Intercourse was very brief, only a minute or two. I went home and went to bed. When I woke up around 10 am, I felt an obvious discomfort in the tip of my penis. I panicked and immediately went to a free STD clinic and talked to a doctor. The doctor told me it was too soon to take any tests for anything and that the discomfort I was feeling may be from dehydration due to all the alcohol I had consumed the night before.
As the week progressed, I noticed the stinging/burning getting worse and felt some heaviness and pain in my bladder area so I assumed I was experiencing a UTI or bladder infection. I took some AZO and my mother gave me some antibiotic she had called minocycline on Oct 8. Within a day of taking the antibiotic, the stinging and burning sensation was gone and I felt completely normal. Since I was feeling healthy again and all the symptoms had stopped so abruptly, I assumed the antibiotic I took worked and cured my assumed UTI and I never went back to the clinic to get testing done.
Fast forward to Oct. 29. I woke up at 8 am and uriniated. Immediately afterwards, I noticed the familiar discomfort in the tip of my penis again. The night before I had barely ate anything and drank some cheap beer so I thought I had irritated my urethra again and took some more AZO and anitbiotic. However, this time the antibiotic didn't seem to work and I felt the usual burning in the urethra and heaviness in the bladder area. I continued to take AZO and the antibiotic to no avail. Between Oct. 29 and Nov. 5th, I had protected sex with a friend of mine about 6 or 7 times. Sex was never painful, ejaculation felt normal. But afterwards, the discomfort in my penis would return.
On Nov. 5, I went back to the free STD clinic and explained my symptoms. The doctor suggested I take a Chlamydia/Gonorrhea test. I have yet to get the results back. She also suggested I go to another clinic and test for a UTI. On Nov. 6 I went to another clinic and tested for a UTI and the results were a little confusing. There were nitrates found in my urine, but no blood or bacteria. As a precaution, the doctor prescribed me 1000mg of Zithromax and 400mg of Suprax in case I was infected with Chlamydia/Gonorrhea. I took both doses on the afternoon of Nov. 6.
It is now late on Nov. 8 and it's difficult to tell if I am experiencing any relief from the stinging/burning on the tip of my penis. I have no sores on my penis but when I spread open my urethra hole, it looks red and irritated and I may just be freaking myself out but I think i see a small, pinhead sized red spot inside. It feels as if the stinging sensation is originating from that location. I am also feeling some strange numbness/sensation in my left leg. I'm really worried that I may be having a herpes outbreak.
I'm hoping one of the doctor's here can shed some light on this and maybe give me an explanation or something to ease my mind. I have not received any test results back for the Chlamydia/Gonorrhea test I did and I have not had a blood test for herpes yet. I am confused by the suddenness of my original symptoms and even more so confused by these current symptoms.
Thanks.
