I'm 42 and in good health. I had a vasectomy almost two years ago. Since then I have been having recurring pain in my right testicle. I have noticed that what is left of the vas deferens tube on the testicle side gets swollen at these times. After trying antibiotics and pain pills, my urologist wants to remove the epididymis on the right testicle. Does this sound like the right treatment? Any one else have this procedure? Can there be other compliations from this? Any other sites to check out more information? Any information is very much appreciated.
