I was having pain in one of my testicles and i made a post about it here. I went to the doctors and had a CPT test or something like that and they said i had abnormal blood count which is a sign of cancer. I am going back to the doctors tomarrow for some more tests... i cant believe this is happening to me. I hope its not cancer

I hope you don't have cancer too. Try not to worry too much, thinking positive is very important to healing. "I will be well."

I sincerely hope you don't. you're in my thoughts. *hug*

Darkness_Falls · 11-11-2008, 06:03 AM

My thoughts are with you, I hope you don't have it. But, if you do, you did the right thing by going straight to the doctors. It will be caught early hopefully and they will be able to do something *hugs*

ah dude sorry to hear =\,

I know a man in his mid-fifties who had testicular cancer (in one testicle) when he was your age. He had it treated and then went on to get married and have children. He has had a good life and is looking forward to at least 20 or 30 more years.

Chin up. Sometimes blood counts fluctuate for a variety of reasons and this is something treatable with a good chance of recovery.

Best of luck.

I'm so sorry to hear that. My boyfriend's roommate is 20 and he has cancer in his testicles. He is having surgery to fix things in a month but he will never be able to have children. It's a life changing thing and my prayers are with you. I'm so very hard to hear that. We have been trying our best to keep him positive, but it's amazingly hard at such a young age.

Don't think of cancer in the way that the 90's was. Cancer research has came a long way and a lot of people seem to be stuck on cancer now being a death sentence. Well, it doesn't have to be.

Immediately start exercising, eating right, and work with your doctors to get treatment. Do not stop your life or the thoughts will get to you. My 80 year old grandmother has been told by doctors that she was going to die within 6 months for the last 10 years of her life.

I seriously hope it is not cancer, but if it is, you still have a lot of fight in you and this thing isn't what it used to mean.

I'm glad that you did the right thing and went to the doctor when you noticed the pain. Hopefully you do not have cancer, but if you do please do not lose hope. Treatment has come a long way, especially with early detection.

Please keep us posted. You're in my thoughts and prayers,

Bella

I'm so sorry. It's not for sure, but if it is, it sounds like you caught it early enough. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Please keep us updated.
