I have been suffering for over a year. I had a 1 time sexual encounter and was treated with a huge dosage of antibiotics (Rocephin and Zithromax) Also took months of other antibiotics as urologist did not know what they were treating, but just prescribing.
Broke out in an itch that felt like ants were under my skin for about 4 weeks. Then urethral pain, anal itch for the last year.
was tested negative:
Gonorrhea , Chlamydia,HIV, Syphilis,HEP ABC. Herpes I even had a urine HPV (dont know the credibility for this test)
Could all this be Candida?
Man, I don’t know… candida seems to get too much attention from the amateur health community, and way too little attention from actual doctors, maybe because it can be so hard to test for, compared to bacterial or viral infections.
So many people are ‘yeast crazy’ these days, blaming it for everything from irritable bowel to the Kennedy assassination that it’s hard to find creditable information.
But I have seen all your systems mentioned in association with candida. Proves nothing, disproves nothing…
If the testicle issue is basically an itchy scrotum, try an anti-fungal cream like Cruex. If it works, speak to your doctor about an oral medicine for the other body parts…
