25 year old male in a relationship for 5 years except for a break for a few months last year. I had one other partner in that time, around May 20, 09. We engaged in unprotected sex for a few minutes before stopping. By the last few days of June, I had the urge to urinate frequently, a clear discharge, and some inflammation in that area. I went to the Health Dept and I was diagnosed with NGU. Tests for Chyl, Gon, HIV, Syph were negative.
Given a 7 day dose of Doxy. Had reaction after one pill. Intense burning and itching in perineum. Mild on chest, arms, and head. Stopped dosage, returned to clinic a few days later. They found no signs of sores and thought it was allergic (been on Tetra family before with no prob) or fungal. Given Zithro and NGU cleared up in a week.
Symptoms returned after a few days. Much more mild. Mostly urge to urinate and dribbling. Found relief when sleeping. 4 weeks later, the symptoms subsided (Mid Aug).
Reunited with my GF. She was tested just to be safe and was clean. End of September, received unprotected oral from her and had protected sex. The symptoms returned, again mild compared to initial infection. They found NGU and gave me Zithromax. My other tests were again clean. The symptoms cleared up within a week (early Oct). GF was retested and negative (for Trich as well).
Moved away to LA and had no other sexual contact. Beginning of Dec, the symptoms returned! Very mild. Was treated on the off chance it was Trich with Metro. Symptoms cleared in 2 weeks. 10 days later, (New Years Eve), GF visited and received unprotected oral. Symptoms returned within a day. Present ever since: weak stream, no discharge except for slight dribbling after urination. Unrelenting urges to urinate are most prominent at night, if at all. Ok when asleep. Since early Dec, have felt much more fatigued than normal (sleeping 10 hrs). No health insurance, working on seeing specialist.
Any chance this is rare case of HSV or some other STD?
