Just joined group today.

Diagnosed with penile cancer 2017. Skin graft and removal of lymph node left groin. Signed off 2019.

2021 biopsy showed penile cancer returned. Glansectomy successful. CT scan showed stage 3 cancer in right hand groin lymph nodes. Go in to have them removed 1/9/21. Just anxious about procedure, drainage, lymphedema. I have been given a booklet on lymphedema & coping with that.

Fear of the unknown is the worst thing. Once we know what we're facing, we find the strength to deal with it.
