Hello. I Was Diagnosed With Epididymitits Previously, I Tested Negative
Question: hello. i was diagnosed with epididymitits previously, i tested negative for chlamydia, gonorrhea, and trich and i never had a UTI, I took ciproflaxin for 30 days and the infection didn%E2%80%99t clear
just recently (yesterday) i went to the ER for excruciating pain in my lower stomach and my back, the Doctor informed me that it%E2%80%99s inflammation of the vein and its from a STD.. So IM getting tested again.
Could the inflammation be due to my epididymitis? i am really confused on what to do or how to feel , is there a reason im testing negative for STDs?

Brief Answer:
It could be epididymitis
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
It could be epididymitis. How was it diagnosed the first time, urethral swab, urine cultured, ultrasound? Your symptoms could be from a kidney stone which typically causes pain as you describe and leads to microscopic blood in your urine, detectable by dipstick.
Looking forward to hearing from you.

it was diagnosed by ultrasound. i went to the ER, they tested for kidney stones but there are none.
i was told i have an inflammed vein running from my stomach to my testicle. is the only way to get that through a STD?
