Maybe OK, but...: ...be careful if your husband is about your age. Over 90% of epididymitis under age 35 is due to chlamydia or gonorrhea. Negative tests don't always exclude them; urine testing misses up to 10% of gonorrhea and chlamydia. If the slightest doubt, you definitely need STD testing yourself and perhaps treatment as if you have gonorrhea and chlamydia. And no sex until this is sorted out. Good luck.
