Hi all,

 Initially the plan was 1-shot carbo adjuvant chemo but now have been told it will be 3 sessions and dosage up 30%. . Op to remove one testicle was back in end of December and was told all clear afterwards however severe pain prompted an A&E visit where they prescribed anti biotics after having an ultra sound It was recommended that I contacted my urologist again which I did. Full CAP CT scan revealed my current situation where there is evidence it's spread now in lymph nodes hence the change in the treatment plan.

Has anyone else had this treatment and can offer any tips etc.

Thanks

Steve T
