Gonorrhea dormancy
How long can gonorrhea persist in a woman either with or without symptoms? There seems to be some disagreement among the doctors which is why I asked. One doctor says he has a patient that had it without symptoms for 3 years and another doctor said that several months-maybe one year is the max and the longer time periods are probably a myth.
Any ideas?

Ok, thank you. Well about a week ago my left testicle did start hurting. Now it doesn't hurt. I'll get tested and let you know. See why I'd be worried though with having a lot of the symptoms and knowing that my wife has vaginal itching, which could get as simple as a yeast infection or as complicated as gonorrhea/chlamydia.
In men, gonorrhea can cause epididymitis, a painful condition of the ducts attached to the testicles.
In women, the symptoms may be quite mild or can be very severe and can include abdominal pain and fever.
Again 2 years would be so uncommon not to show any kind of symptoms and probably after 6months to 1 year it would progress to the above.

Could you tell me some of the complications of gonorrhea I might have by now or my wife for that matter? That might help me a bit.
I'm just worried because there's so much about it being a silent disease that women don't know they have it and all that my wife could go on for 2 years and maybe only think she has a yeast infection, which is what she says now.

I think it might be time to post in the anxiety forum. You are talking about something from 2 years ago and somehow convinced yourself that you have it. As I said before you would have a lot of complications by now.
And you don't get gonorrhea of the eye that way. Hell I don't even know if it is possible due to the way gonorrhea is transmitted.

I've scheduled an appointment on Monday, so cross the fingers. I'm really worried because I honestly think I have it.
Really that low of a chance for gonorrhea of the eye? If for instance, after urinating and wiping it off, if you rub your eyes later before washing your hands, could that give it to the eyes? I'm so freaking out because this morning I woke up with extra mucus in my right eye, like I have to blink to clear it up.
