Prostate or Back?Four months ago, I went to the hospital with sharp pains in my stomach, lower back that radiated into my testicles. I was diagnosed with gallstones (but the Dr. didn't see any inflamation in gall bladder) and with a UTI and possible prostatitis. I was given cirpo for 7 days and a rocephin shot. The cipro worked and my symptoms went away. About 3 days later the pain in my back and testicles returned and I visited a doctor. He said it could be epididymitis and put me on doxycycline for 10 days and a rocephin shot. Just like before, during treatment symptoms went away, but after the treatment the symptoms returned. Since then, I have had an ultrasound of my testicles (everything fine) at the hospital and was referred to a urologist. During this time I have also had bouts of unexplained sweating and terrible headaches on the back of my head. The urologist found blood in my urine but found no evidence of kidney stones (had a CT with contrast). He also checked my bladder with a cystoscope and everything looked fine. He beleives my back and testicular pain are muscular/skeletal. However, my family doctor thinks I could still have prostatitis I have to have a checkup with the urologist in 6 weeks but I am still in pain. I do lift weights 5 days a week, but haven't lifted in over a month. I would think if it were muscular, having refrained from lifting would have fixed the issue. I am 28 years old. Thank you for you time
