just been diagnosed

Just found out that the doctor thinks I have testicular cancer. Can't quite believe it to be honest. Feel numb thinking I have to go through this. I don't even know what to do about university which I am supposed to start in 3 weeks. I feel sick thinking about the next year now

  • Sorry to hear about your case and I hope you will have good news soon. I've never thought I would write on a cancer forum. I've got the diagnose of bladder cancer after a routine health check-up. And I could not believe that this happens to me as I don't have any risk factors. 3 days later I was in the hospital for a TURBT surgery to remove the tumor. That was yesterday. Still hoping it's not aggressive cancer but once you hear this word cancer it feels like an enemy has entered your body and you've lost control. I think nowadays there are good chances to heal cancer if you find it early stage and you can survive and have a good and long life but it's just always circulating in your brain and follows you everywhere. Be strong and all the best. You will survive!
