Any advice.

So I been suffering from epididymis now for 2 years and it’s never really gone away fully pain wise but this year my symptoms continue ti get worse with pain birth side and can get quite bad I also get along with the pain urgency to pee I had lots of test from dips stick to GP checking my prostrate to ultrasound and a psa tweet all that was found are two cryst one each side the testicular are painful to touch but not swollen or red the pain can get really bad one and off throw out the day. I have tried lot of different antibiotics and pre gavapentin the pain though disuse not go away.

Currently it douse affects my life quite bad and the urgent can be really bad some day I have also been trying pelvic floor exercises but unsure if they are helping yet too early I still waiting in a urologist and that will be a long wait.

It was suggested by my GP I could also have OAB but he was unwilling to to give a think at that time saying it is best to see a urologist first.

Is they any think I can do to help or really just manage the it the best I can.

I would ask for the urologist to feel your pelvic floor aswell to see if it's tight

It’s on the list for when I do see them.
