5 month long infection after TURP + Epididymitis

I had TURP surgery 5 months ago and contracted an infection from the catheters (3).  I've been on antibiotics for months and little improvement.  I've also got a case of epididymitis (nuts on fire).  Current antibiotic is Nitrofurantoin Macro.  Urologist told me to come back in 3 months while my health and quality of life *****!!!  What are some other options for treatment?  Original culture was Coagulese negative Staph.
