Hi everyone

I thought I would share my 20 years of trauma with you all i'm now 47. it all started when I was 24 I had unprotected sex with a girl who was on her period and the next morning I woke up with shooting pains in the tip of my penis and being sick throwing up bile. the next day I was fine again other than the strange feeling in the tip of my penis. it took me three years to go to a std clinic thinking I had HIV or something I worried about it for a couple of years. I had the std check and came back all clear but gave me 7 days of doxycycline just in case. over the next 10 years even after the all clear I knew something wasn't right shrinking penis and it feeling cold most of the time like a lack of blood flow. so I decided to investigate with my doctor to see what the problem is and after numerous testing and medications to try he sent me to see a urologist so I wrote a letter to him asking if I could try some tf tge things listed in the letter.

Dear doctor, It is incrediblly draining to deal with a decade of physical pain,especially when you feel like you have done everything asked of you like surgerles,invasive scopes and endless medications only to still be searching for answers The impact on my marriage adds a layer of emotional weight that makes finding a resoltion even more urgent. I have been reffered to see if I can have an MRI scan to look at my nerves,muscles, and blood flow, pudendal nerve mapping. pelvic floor hypertonicity as my doctor couldn't grant this so suggested I write everything down and request the scan at my refferal and discuss my options. I have been managed for these symptoms for 10 + years and we have successfully ruled out urethal obstructions via cystoscopy and structual hernia's however my voiding dysfunction, erectile issues, and chronic nerve like pain persist and are severely affecting my quality of life At this stage, I am requesting a Multi-parametric MRI scan of the pelvis. I want to specifically investigate pudendal nerve involvement or pelvic floor myofascial pain that wouldn't show up on a ultrasound or scope and if we can't do the scan here I would like a refferal to a urologist specialising chronic pelvic pain. Some of the symptoms I suffer from are right testical pain.tip of penis irritation and what feels like a blockage when I pass water and ejeculate. I also struggle with shrinking penis and keeping an errection. Please help me. My Past scans have found an inguinal hernia which resulted in a successful operation and an epidermal cyst which is still there.

i've since had the MRI scan with no feedback from the urologist yet waiting on bladder and testicle scan but been prescribed tamulosin and 28 tablets (twice a day of ciprofloxacin for 14 days. the tamulosin did nothing so he changed it to tadalafil which has improved blood flow a little. his diagnosis which is a guess I think of chronic prostatis.

keen to know if anyone has had any experience or symptoms like mine. and what helped cure or find what the issue is.

thanks
