In a drunken moment of stupidity, I had an encounter with a sex worker in S. America. There was a lot of bump-grind fooling around, and some direct genital contact. Then, she gave me a hand-job using her saliva, no protection. A few days later, I had sex with my wife with no protection. That same week, I started feeling discomfort in the scrotum, an urge to urinate and discomfort in my urethra (no discharge). I went to a local clinic. They tested for gonorrhea, and chlamydia and UTI (all neg). They gave me Cipro for 9 days. A week later, my wife began to have vaginal discharge and was diagnosed with Trichomonas. We had an honest talk and I let her know what had happened. She used the Metronidale gel for 5 days and her symptoms disappeared. I took Metronidazole 500 mg PO q12h x 7 days. I thought I started to feel better toward the 6th day, but still with some urge to urinate and discomfort. Then, about 3-4 days later, my discomfort was even worse then before. The urge to urinate was constant, discomfort in the urethra, and I felt as if my perineum hurt (swollen Prostate?), & scrotum burning. The clinic prescribed Tinidazole 2g for 5 days as a follow-up. I also went to see a urologist. He said everything “looked” fine. Just in case, he put me on doxy for 7 days. His attempt to run a test for Trichomonas was botched. Labs are not prepared to test men. I finished that last round of Tinidazole and doxy3.5 weeks ago, and I am still having symptoms. My scrotum aches, I still have a constant slight urge to urinate, and discomfort of the urethra is still there. According to the Johns Hopkins poc-it recommends a 28 day course of Tinidazole or Metronidazole for Trichomonas causing Prostatitis. Is this a good way to go? Are there any other STDs to check? I feel that I am beyond the realm of an average STD clinic and my suburban urologist. Do you know any STD specialist (non-HIV) in the Bay Area that can help me please?
