I have made changes to /home/mysite/public_html/testsite/libraries/joomla/form/fields/folderlist.php but nothing has changed.

Without changing folderlist.php as suggested I changed both 'Path to Files Folder' and 'Path to Images Folder' in media/options to ../images and it worked.
I can now see the files/folder under symlinked images folder.
