About to make a baby , and scared.

For about 2 years I have been having an ache in my groin every single day
On left side initially when it started there was sort of like an electric shock that would travel from my lower back ( left side ) towards my left testicle / groin area .
First I went to the city clinic to get tested for STD’s . ( all were Negative )
Doctor said I possibly have EPI , she gave me shot of penicillin like substance , followed by one pill and also 14 days worth of  doxycycline . After that treatment the electrical impulses went away , but slight discomfort in my groin and lower pelvic area was still there . I went to another doctor he gave me another batch of doxycycline for another 3 weeks, than I went to another doctor he gave me 4 weeks of cypro .
The discomfort in the left pelvic and groin / testicle region is still there till this day and.
Still no doctor can tell me what the diagnosis is .
Here is my question  :

My wife and I are trying to have a baby and I am deadly afraid that my baby may come Out with some kind of a disease or disorder . Could this be true or not ?

Ps. Also if any of these symptoms look familiar to please advise me on what to do .
Thank you in advance.

This question would be better addressed by a urologist.

To: Must clarify something
My concern is if I am having an ongoing infection of some sort
Is there any risk of having a baby ? Do I have a good reason to be worried?
