Hi all,


I wanted to have a moan and to get things off my chest.

I haven't been on here for a few years.

After my 5-year surveillance programme ended in 2015, I decided it would be better for my mental health if I didn't come on here daily reading posts that...

Hey guys, new to the forum.

I'm 24 years old and I was diagnosed with TC last year on my right testicle (stage 1 non-seminoma) and had an orchiectomy operation to remove it. I've been on surveillance ever since and so far all my blood tests and CTs came clean.

But ever since...

Hi all,

I haven't posted for a while as we really felt our journey ended in 2013 after hubby underwent right orchiectomy and on advice from the medical oncologist we decided to proceed with active surveillance.

Last Friday was his 4 year check up, we didn't expect much given...

Hi Everyone,

I just went for my 4-year scans and they showed 2 enlarged lymph nodes.
1 iliac that was previously enlarged now grew larger and a new one on the back wall of the stomach. However, the tumor markers are clear.

How likely is it that it can be a recurrence?...

Hey Guys - 4 years after the original diagnosis of Stage 1A Seminoma and orchidectomy and after 4 years of surveillance the CT and PET scans show relapse and biopsy tomorrow to confirm what they already suspect. My Doc I've seen since the beginning is so confident that she has already scheduled me for...

Hi guys,

Wesley was given a second chance.

After undergoing a second unsuccessful RPLND just three weeks ago (July 2013) - he was told by the surgeon that further resection of his tumour was impossible. This meant he would not see cure.

After hard work and...

Firstly, thank you for setting up this great forum, and to everyone who is sharing their experiences! This has helped me a lot already. Now I feel I need some advice before deciding on the next step for my treatment. My problem is that opinions here in the UK are slightly...

Hello fellow survivors.

I have a few questions that I would like to ask the members of this forum. First, I think I should introduce myself.

My experience regarding testicular cancer might be very similar to yours, but here is some stats.
