My father has central cervical stenosis and is partially paralyzed. A month ago, he developed a scrotal abscess that needed drainage. His sugar levels are too high for surgery, and the doctors say antibiotics aren't working because of his uncontrolled diabetes. What can we do in this situation? I'm really worried and don't know what steps to take next.

I've been dealing with erectile dysfunction and went to see a doctor about it. He recommended I get tests for testosterone, vitamin B12, prolactin, and FSH. My results came back, showing testosterone at 2 ngml, vitamin B12 at 182 pgml, FSH at 2.99 mIUml, and prolactin at 7.21 ngml. I'm scheduled to see him on Thursday, but I'm feeling really anxious and worried. Is a testosterone level of 2 ngml considered critically low when the normal range is 2.8 to 8? I'm a 29-year-old male, 178 cm tall, and weigh 95 kg. I used to smoke. Can you give me any advice on this?
