About 7 weeks ago I discovered a tightness in my groin, not testicular pain but further up in the tubes.
It was later diagnosed as being a varicocele in the left testicle and I have been referred to a specialist for the 29th of June
However having investigated it on the internet my symptoms don't appear to entirely match those which my research has found. For example the discomfort does not go away when I lay down, ejaculation is painful, also when I do ejaculate only a small quantity of semen is present, my erections are weak and I have all but lost my sex drive. I understand that it may have an impact on male fertility but from what I gather the evidence is only correlative.
My question is are my additional symptom something to worry about and should I try and have my appointment moved forward as a matter of urgency? Or could these symptoms just be part of my personal physiology? I am quite anxious about it, so any help would be appreciated.
