Hi my name is Lee, in feb 2024 i went to my gp practice i had spoken to a locome on the phone he asked what was my problem, i said i think i have a form of skin cancer,immediately he asked me to come along, i got along there as fast as possible,he called me straight in he examined me and said "" there's nothing to worry about this cream will clear you up"" I said thankyou and left after him telling me it was'nt skin cancer. But i had this nagging doubt, any way i used this cream for about two months it was still there it did'nt get any bigger or smaller so left it, a few months later i showed my girl-friend and she said get a second opinion so i had my dr call me i explained everything to her how it looked the size the colour and where it was, she gave me cream on the thursday,by friday morning i received a call from a clinic asking me to go up i said i couldn't until tuesday 2july . so that morning i went to the clinic with my girlfriend, iwas called through by the female dr, i sat in her office we discussed things ect... then she wanted to examine me, bang goes my dignity out the door i thought!!!! Then the dr said she wanted to do a biopsy right there and now , i knew by the look on her face it was'nt good news but she did'nt say, she done the biopsy and that was the job done as i thought dr said results take upto 8 wks i said ok thanks and thanked her and left with my girlfriend. As the weekis passed then into months i was getting very scared by the time the news came through i was about to have a nervous breakdown, 23 oct is the day i got the call from the dr who did the biopsy her words were Lee im so sorry to tell you its a form of skin cancer, i knew that was the results i was going to get i thanked her for everything she did for me and all the help i had from her,she said she was going to get in touch with the hospital immediately, by 12th november i had my pre-op done on the 13 july i went in for the operation to have this cancer removed, i was ment to be in for the one day out by night i was kept in over night as i was in so much pain. By the following day i was up and about was given morphine that next morning ,id seen the surgeon they were happy with the operation and happy with the stitches and gave me the the thumbs upto go home ,but ive to go back in two weeks for a follow up. I've just turned 58 im very athletic i never thought for one second i'd ever be told i had cancer so going back to 23rd october the way ive got through this is to do a diary and be in denial pretend i dont have it and all will go away, I refused to speak to anyone about it, if i was to discuss this i'd breakdown and i dont know where i'd end up, This is my story of how i found out i had penoscrotal Cancer.....
