testicular cancer

I am new to this but wanted to hear other peoples experience of testicular cancer and the BEP regime. My fiance is currently undergoing his first cycle and is really struggling with the side effects of this and it doesn't help that he is normally such an active person. He just wanted someone to talk to who has his this experience to shed some light on it so please help :)

  • Hi Daniella,

    I know you posted this a while ago, so not sure if you're still checking this.  My partner is about to start BEP and he's terrified of the side effects as he's self employed and if he can't work he doesn't get paid.  I was just wondering how things went with your fiance and if you managed to find anything else out.

    Jo :)
