Hi Guys! I had testicular cancer with left testicle removed followed by 3 rounds of chemotherapy and removal of lymph nodes in kidney, lung and neck areas.
Did anyone as well had lymph nodes from neck removed?
All this was 5 years ago. Now I am 40 and I went for check up today and ultrasound showed 3 to 5 small dark spots, like smudges in right testicle, which were not there 6 months ago?
I should go for check up again in 2 weeks.
I feel good now, so I don't get it.
Doctor says it does not look usual, could be anything but cancer as well so if it will be there in 2 weeks they will have to remove the testicle, I am one month in new job now so I am really afraid as last time I was on sick leave for 9 months ..
What do you think?
Thank you!
Hi Jozzef and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.
It's always a worrying time when you fear a recurrence of your cancer. I don't think any of us lose that fear.
I can't help with your question of whether you may have a recurrence but I noticed that your post hadn't had any replies yet. Responding to you will 'bump' your post back to the top of the discussion list where it'll hopefully be seen by someone with the right experience.
While you're waiting for replies it would be great if you could pop something about your diagnosis and treatment so far into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
