The undiagnosed pain in urethra, perineum, perianal region, thighs


1) Cold clammy skin constrained to genital region(including phallus).
2) Severe and daily pain in urethra (esp. Meatus), including dysuria.
3) Folliculitis in the thigh and sciatic region, though possibly unrelated to pain.
4)  Dermic pain in perineum, perianal region, and to a lesser extent thighs.
5) Anxiety resulting from pain, But Not Causing Pain

I've scheduled in appointment with a large clinic in my area of the States, but from what i've read i have very dim expectations.  However, i think we can rule out, based on the specificity of symptoms and their explicit correlation, a diagnosis that chalks this up to a psychosomatic problem of conversion or mental provenance.  I think what we Can agree on is this:

1) its sexually transmitted
2) anti-biotics provide no relief (therefore, it may not be bacterial in nature, though this is not presumed)
3) anti-fungals also seem to have pretty marginal successs based on the anecdotes in this and other forums.
4) if its herpetic it is an entirely novel or undiagnosible strain.
5) It is potentially viral
6) it may to some degree be related to HPV
7) the follicitis in the inner thigh and sciatic region may have something to do with it (and therefore the postules/ blemishes are not folllicitis).  
8) Its effect on women is hitherto unknown.

This sounds herpetic. Some folks don't test IgG +.  Not much else this could be.

Additionally, with initial outbreak, pain in eyelids and all over body.  Also stinging lesions on neck, though this may be unrelated.
