You need a special microscope to do fluorescent antibody tests for chlamydia, but a think a fair number of labs have them. It's funny that your doc sees epididymitis and prostatitis as unrelated, for in a phone call with a colleague who looks all the time, he finds prostatitis and epididymitis go together often. He always tests for chlamydia and ureaplasma, in the man and the woman, and is suprised how often he can get them to grow from the woman but not from the man. He feels the bugs may hide up in the prostate in the man.
