Epididymitis and Prostate Removal
Dr Krongrad,
Epididymitis has long been associated with chronic prostatitis; in fact, most urologist I have seen down the years have said epididymitis in itself is a symptom of chronic prostatitis.
As a last resort, if I opt to have my c.p. treated by radical prostate removal, would that also cure the epidymitis? Or would I be left in the unenviable position of having no prostate gland after surgery, yet still suffering the severe testicle pain which I suffer now?

Since we appear to have exhausted the topic of prostate surgery and epididymitis, you may want to continue on the finasteride discussion.
