Hi All,
I was diagnosed with testicular cancer (Stage 1B seminoma) in September and had an orchidectomy to remove the testicle. Had an other op in March as I had complications from the surgery.
I’ve now found a lump in the other testicle. I can only feel it when I’m lying in bed at night, my GP couldn’t feel it, but he’s referred me for an urgent ultrasound. Saw him on Monday, so I’m hoping I’ll know by the end of next week.
I know chances are it’s nothing to worry about, but also know there is a possibility that’s it is. Not told family or many friends as I found out from the original diagnosis that dealing with others dealing with it was worse than dealing with it yourself.
Had anyone had a diagnosis in both testicles? Obviously my body wouldn’t produce any testosterone, how effective are the replacements? I exercise quite a bit (run 25 miles a week), I’m worried about the knock on effect to this, my mood, sex drive etc 
Hopefully the worrying I’m doubt will have been unnecessary, but I also want to prepare myself for the worst.
Thanks
Called the hospital X-ray department and was told I’ve been offered an appointment in Shrewsbury next Thursday, so after the 14 day target. I asked if they had anything sooner or if they had a short notice waiting list and was pretty much told I should be grateful I got that appointment. 
So hopefully I’ll know in 10 days time.
