I have been doing my own research and as well, accidentally, met one of the best doctors in my state.

One of the major concerns, if epididymitis is not due to STD, is tuberculosis.

Tuberculosis can affect any part of the body and need not only be the lungs. If you find yourself in a situation where no antiboitics are helping, you may want to get tested for tuberculosis.

Tuberculosis is a curable disease if detected early. And a communicable one.

I have tried Fenugreek/Fennel for over 6 months now, it did not help. Tried Cipro, Doxy, and several other anitbiotics. Finally, I am going to get tested for tuberculosis of epdidimus.

Good Luck. Don't delay - it will only get worse.

Jim.
