Doc said, based on my description after I was able to feel around in my nuts on the painkiller + the ultrasound + initial checkup, that it's probably epididymitis. It fucking hurts, how the hell do you live with it? I'd end up like House, honestly, popping Vicodin until I hallucinate (don't worry, I'm being careful with this shit). If the Cipro he prescribed doesn't make the inflammation die down and it is a cyst, I am SO having surgery.

It doesn't bother me so he said to enjoy my third ball. If it was causing problems then I'd be looking at having it removed.

What was your treatment? Looks like I need to make a doctor's appointment. As of last night I noticed (after it started feeling like I got hit in the nuts a few hours earlier or something) that the right one is very enlarged.

i've had a sonogram on my nuts before, strange experience heh.

however the pain in my right nut ended up being a result of 2 bulging discs in my lumbar region on my back.

I mean if he had a great personality and was a good dancer and had a cool car...Although you'd probably have to ride in the back seat 'cause his nuts would ride shotgun.

The pain in my nuts was because of the inflammation/infection that may or may not have been caused by the cyst. The Cipro (strong antibiotic) that the doctor put me on took care of that, and I haven't really been in any pain since then. My nads obviously don't feel just right with an extra partner down there, but I'm alright.

I'm going in for surgery after I'm done with classes. Doctor said then I'd really be hurting, and probably immobile for a week :shocked:
