Hi I am new here

Hello allyloosingtest

Welcome to the Online community. I am sorry that you have not yet had a reply to your post however sometimes it can just take a little longer for someone going through similar to see it and offer support. 

I am sorry to hear that you have had a bilateral orchidectomy and I hope that you are recovering ok from your surgery. If you feel like talking things through with someone would help, then please do give the Macmillan Support Line a call. They are there from 8am-8pm daily. 

I wish you well with your continued recovery.

I am so sorry to hear what you are going through. Our son went through this( one tumour one side) in the spring and summer. It dominated his/ours every waking thought. Once he had the surgery, then chemo, which he was lucky enough to have no illness or symtoms, he/we started to put our lives back together and move forward on an upward path.He now is so much more himself. I hope that whatever treatment you have soon passes and you too start to pick up the pieces.  I went to the McMillan cafe which I found super helpful. My son chose not. They can offer great support and help get professional emotional help for people. Very best wishes. Pippa P

Thank you so much for the email and advice on getting support it really helps 

Hi Pippa thank you so much for sending such a lovely message. have been through it quite a bit recently but hopefully getting on top of stuff now 

Hi our son had a testicle removed last July and had one round of chemotherapy.soon afterwards his long term girlfriend left him and he was very down . He coped with the chemo very well, he had sperm banked and is now much better, looking forward to the future. He finds spending time in the countryside very healing and in some ways it has changed his outlook on life for the better. I fo hope you come through this and begin to enjoy life again. Sending love and best wishes
