Waiting for testicular ultrasound

Hi there everyone

Just like to ask a few questions see if anyone had same type of symptoms 

Starting about7 weeks ago got a shooting pain in testicle left side.later that evening checked after bath to find swollen epididmas and feels like lump at bottom,testicle  cant tell if on epididymis or testis   dr couldnt feel properly and give me doxycycline     took those  pain went right down  but he booked me in for ultrasound   now  my youngest son smashed arm  had big operation  anesthetic  very scary. Day after  started getting  diarrhoea constipation  what feels like im geting stomach pains lower left side  bloating   then last week left foot was swelling under sock    got a tremor in lower abdomen   and shakey hand  and now under arms hurting   cant feel lumps  other than testicle

Sorry for long list but im asking is can this many things can go wrong in this space of time   im turning into a anxious mess    stoped smoking 2 weeks ago aswell     dr other thanbooking ultrasound  has fobbed me off  with ppi for acid  give me imodium with i want take and cannot seem to get appointment to see him

I got Us on thursday   is it worth bringing this up or will it be another massive wait      thx

  • Welcome to the community Stevostar although I'm sorry to read what you've been through lately.

    People can suffer side effects when they stop smoking, especially if stopping cold turkey, so this could be heightening your anxiety at the moment but if you're unhappy with your current doctor you could always see another one (if this option is available to you) to get a second opinion.

    I hope your ultrasound goes well on Thursday and that you hear from some of our members who have had similar issues soon.

    All the best,
