Yes, if you haven't had one, you should.

Maybe a blood test to see the white blood cell count?
I don't know what treatment, because you don't know what's wrong. I would follow whatever your doc has said, and if it doesn't improve, see a urologist.
Thanks so much
Urine Test results have all come back negative including chylamydia . I have had three different urine tests spread out over 2 months or so .. Swelling seems to be minor and has gone down. The pain was intially a bit painful but has since been more annoying. The sweeling seems to go down and then back up .. Quite odd as I have never had anything like this i my life?? I am very active but I doubt it's muscular.. I have just started the no caffine, no alchohol thing and elevating the scrotum at night ( no sex too).. Swelling went down & seems to be working as it has only been one day..
Just want to know what proper treatment to administer to get better
Thanks
I strongly doubt you had epididymitis. That is a very painful condition.
When you had your second tests, was it longer than a week since you had taken the antibiotic? If it wasn't, and two weeks is actually better, then you might have a false negative.
This doesn't sound std to me, though. Maybe its anxiety, or you pulled a muscle.
