I have had epididymitis a few times in the past few years and each time it would go away in a few days after i took a steroid/cortizone pack of medicine from the doc, I got it again a month ago, and have taken 3 packs of the steroid, a week of levoquin, an injection into the ep,2 weeks of cipro and am currently now on vioxx and doxycycline. I had lots of pain in my epididymis and that seems to have subsided, as has the swelling there, i now have painfull twinges inmy testes , they seem to be feeling alittle better but its hard to say for sure, my scrotum isnt as swollen and sore as it once was, but the pains in the testes are still there, does it sound like i am improving or what is going on? is it safe to ejac.?i am very depressed over this in fear that i may never get rid of this thing, it is driving me crazy, please help me with any info you guys may have, thanks,
