About 20 years ago, give or take, I changed jobs and just a few doors down from us was a doctor. Just him and his secretary, not a big office. He'd pop in from time to time when he had a no-show, and we often took things out in trade.

He once told me that it wasn't a doctor's job to cure everyone who came in, otherwise, they'd all be out of a job. They want to keep you coming back. He was one of the only two doctors I've ever met whom I respected, as he did not hold to this opinion.

He's retired now, and it's a shame. He was honest with his patients, and he got things done.

I was told at 23 that I had to live with chronic epididymis and orchailaga for the rest of my life because there was nothing that could be done. Well the last time it happened it killed my testicles and they were removed. They should have done that when I was 23. I missed a lot of work and paid a lot of money for nothing but to continually suffer. I was their cash cow

Sorry to hear you had to endure with that pain for so long buddy.

One day the medical establishments will change their tune for persons like us.

Appreciate everyone of yours replies and input. It encouraged me to once again to get out of the dark cave of pain and do my research information on my issue. Need to arm myself with information for a doc. I found this article which is spot on for my situation.
