My partner had to go to a&e on the 13th march with suspected gallstones, 14th march did a ultrasound scan and no stones so admitted him onto a ward etc so sent him for a CT scan on the 16th, had the results within an hour and his appendix had burst so had the op on the Saturday night to remove them but before he went for his op the dr came and told him they had found something else on his scan something called a “squiggle” whatever that means and she didn’t believe holding anything back from anyone. My partner is 35 now and had testicular cancer when he was 21 so he asked her straight is it cancer and she said she couldn’t say. Fast forward to before he went down for his op on the Saturday night the dr has come back and told him it looks like a “mass or a cluster”. We’ve now found out from his discharge letter it’s a lesion near his left kidney with a question mark. He’s been referred to urology mdt and had a letter saying he’s got a telephone consultation Thursday 28th, he had another letter saying he’s got to have a ct thorax now but what possibly for? He’s had the telephone consultation today and they still don’t know other than telling him they were concerned about it that it could of come back or could be scar tissue as he had to have lymph nodes removed from his abdomen when he had the testicular cancer but they’ve also said on the phone today go for the ct thorax scan still but it will get sent to hospital as they are specialists? He did also have his testicular cancer treatment at that hospital too, anyone had similar?
