I went to the doctor's last week, with a lump on my left testicle and pain.
I was told that I would be referred for a ultrasound appointment. I got the date yesterday. However it is not until 9 June. Is this normal? I am in constant pain.

Hi OldMart and welcome to the community although sorry to hear you are in some discomfort. I am not from this group but noticed your post has slipped by without a reply, so just giving it a bump and hopefully some of the group members will respond. I did have an initial ultrasound for my own cancer and had to wait about 4 weeks, so your timing sounds about right. If you are in a lot of pain it might be worth giving them a ring to see if they can fit you in a cancellation slot. I hope all goes well. Best wishes.
