[Question #3592] STI Question

|
Hello Dr’s,
I was wondering if Dr. Hunter Handsfield was available to
answer. If not I appreciate any Doctor advise.
Im a 28 yr old male. Just over a year ago, I made the
mistake of having a one night stand type deal and had unprotected vaginal/anal
sex with a girl. A week or so later I had symptoms (biting/tingling sensation
in urethra and a tiny bit of discharge). I went and got tested. They gave me
antibiotics for chlamydia/gonnorhea (shot and two pills). The discharge went
away shortly after. It’s been over a
year, and I’m still experiencing the biting/tingling/tickling sensation in
urethra. Since my positive test, I had about 3 urine tests I believe, one blood
test for other stds/STIs, a cystoscope, and a CAT scan (for possible kidney
stones) All is negative and looked fine. But I’m STILL having the symptoms. I
don’t believe they tested hsv because they said their test wouldn’t
differentiate between hsv 1 and 2...and since I’ve had cold sores growing up,
they said it would probably be positive. I sometimes get itchy down in the
pubic hair region and it does rash up if I itch it. My doctor said he doesn’t
suspect hsv 2 and said I would know by now if I had it (being a male). I am
looking for advise on what it could be. I’m worried I could possibly transmit
something. Also, is it true chlamydia can live in your stomach even after being
cured? And having it come back on it’s own? I’ve read that in a couple places.
But others say it isn’t true....Thank you.
