Question for the guys about the "boys" down south?

KG · 10-09-2007, 07:09 PM

Long story short....Sunday morning shower, I discover what feels like a third nut! Doesn't hurt, but as big as the twins. See my doc, he thinks it's a slightly pulled muscle, that has gotten infected. Not a hernia. Not cancerous, appeared too soon and I'm in good health. Urologist agrees.
Go tomorrow for an ultrasound, am on antibiotics to see if the swelling/infection go away. Still no pain, no discomfort, don't even know it's there.
Anyone ever have this happen?
BTW, not a hernia, or hydrocele.

KG,

That's a new one on me, but I once had a lump that later disappeared after the doc pronounced it harmless.

Good luck with the ultrasound.

Thanks guys. My doc is great! He said "no discomfort?" I said no. He looks at me as he's putting on the glove, and says, " well, that's going to change in about ten seconds!" HAHA. EWW, he was right. He was trying to figure out which was the boys, which wasn't. " Turn your head and cou..yell! "
I'm not nervous, which is good.
We'll see tomorrow.

I hope its just a swelling or small nothing. Its pretty scary to find stuff like that. (I don't have the twins but women get cysts, too, a lot are just swollen glands or irritation from a minor infection).

TMI I'm sure but I found a ridge of lumps in my breast once that turned out to be from too much caffeinne. My doc said it happens to men too, "down yonder". Lay off the caffeinne for a while. Mine were gone in like 3 days...but talk about heart stopping to find a lump! UGH

CB,
My doc was pretty relaxed about it...didn't go into super " lets order a battery of tests" kinda thing. and believe me I get get nervous lately.
But I feel cool...
Just weird to have someone rooming with the "twins" when they didn't even ask the landlord!
My weight is still down, but gaining.
Still working out.
Feel healthy, putting in 40 hour weeks.
So I'm sure cancer is out of the question.
Something got wobbled down there, is all!
Thanks for the concern! My boys thank you too! LOL!!!
AND that's actually the first and only time I've typed thaT !
ROFLMAO!!!

You want some of my weight

.

Have you tried those Ensure shakes, they can help. Or drink the Slim Fast shakes in conjunction to regular meals. I had a friend that was underweight, she had to eat 3-4 meals and drink those, she got healthy and put on some weight in no time. The shakes are good because they have a lot of nutrition and some of the flavors are really good.

CB,
I eat constantly, plus use Carnation Instant Breakfast, plus Boost, a super high calorie drink.
I've a high metabolism, so it's going to take awhile.
Slow and steady.
