Lying about cancer

Hi ,so basically I had a friend who told me they had found d a lump in he’s testicle and it was cancer and that it had been surgically removed! He then went on to tell me that he had an appointment with the doctors to then find out if the cancer had spread any where else or disappeared for good!!

tbis whole process of them finding the cancer,the removal of it and the final appointment happened in the space of 4 months

I have other reasons to believe that this is untrue ,would appreciate some help on this 

thank you !!

  • Hello and thank you for posting.

    I am afraid I am unable to say whether your friend is lying about possibly having cancer. Things within the NHS are taking longer than previously, so the time frame is not unusual.

    Do allow your friend to talk things through, as this may be true, or this could be a sign of an underlying struggle with their mental health.

    Take care,

    Sarah
