Treatments For Prostate Cancer

Posts Tagged ‘testicular cancer’

I think i have a mild testicular cancer, I know I’m already starting the process but how long would it take to cure it?

I have testicular cancer for more than 6 years now… the pain and growth of my testicle was very slow that I didn’t take action.. but now I want to see the doctor. I have never seen a professional regarding my condition and I want to fight for my life now. I hope it’s not too late. I’m sure my tumor and cancer condition is at an advanced stage and I don’t even know if it has already spread on other parts of my body but I want to go see a doctor… even if I can’t afford or get insurance to pay for the many treatments of cancer.

Can I go to a regular physical exam at any city clinic? They can tell me what I have how long does it take for them to give me any results? What exams will they do on me for the first visit and can they determine my condition on the first visit or will they send me to see a cancer hospital for more detailed examinations?

Thanks You

Lets say someone is 14 and they do a testicular cancer check and lets say they have the cancer how long will they live without treatment?

I am 22 yrs old and in the last 6 months, I was diagnosed with testicular cancer, had the girl of my dreams suddenly stop all communication with me, became financially damaged due to costy cancer treatments. I was mostly sitting alone in the hospital with little support from family and friends, the drugs I took made me gain about 30 pounds, I lost my nice long head of hair which made me look like, according to others, a male model. Yesterday I was told that I am kicked out of my nursing program at school inspite of telling them what happened to me healthwise. Now, tonight this new girl I have a crush on ,decided not to come out because she said she “didnt feel like coming out” on the phone, even though we made plans to go out, on the drive home from the restuarant, at which I sat alone, I finally aknowledged my sadness so here I sit, somewhat drunk and typing this silly question, AM I A SELFISH CRYBABY FOR FEELING LIKE THIS? There are others in the world aho have it far worse the I do.
I must also add that I speak very little if at all of my problems to others so the “poor me, feel sorry for me” need not apply here. This is for those of you think I might think I am riding the “wave”

Dilemma — 6 years has passed and my ex has been forgotten and now… he’s come back into my life to tell me he is sorry, misses me and loves me. He’s even gone as far as telling me he should have married me and we could have had a child by now. Seriously?? I did give him my phone number. He called and after our first time on the phone in 6 years he confessed many things. To top it off—he told me he has been diagnosed with Testicular Cancer. I am so angry and confused. He’s already died once in my eyes. Now with that said, his survival outlook seems good, but he’s scared. Before talking to me he wasn’t going to seek ANY treatment after being diagnosed. He needs to go to another doctor for additional tests-this he told me.

To my surprise he’s now made an appointment the day after I told him I’d love him back if he took care of himself. I felt that was the only way to get him to the doctor because he didn’t mind the death wish before I said that. My feelings are coming back for him. He’s not the right person for me. The way I look at it, he had his chance. But how can one turn their back on an old loved (now sick) ex. Kills me to hear him say how he’s wasted 6 years of his life without me.

Should I continue to talk to him? Should I see him? It’s eating me up inside and the good person in me wants to support/help him emotionally. His family is estranged and he doesn’t have “real” friends in his life—one of the problems of being in the entertainment industry (you never know who your true friends are). I’ve been there before his popularity took off. That’s why he’s come to me.

Can anyone give me sound advice to my dilemma?

I’m just over 18, so I’m not covered by my parents health insurance anymore.I don’t have a job yet, so I don’t have any money or health insurance.I found a lump on a testicle and I think I have testicular cancer.If I go to the doctor before I get H.I., it will be much more expensive, if they will cover me at all, so I need to get covered before going to the dr.
I want to see a doctor, but I want to get health insurance first.
What should I do?
Does anyone know about how much treatment will be?

what is the normal bloodtest level for hcg after testicular cancer treatment

The guy I’ve been seeing for about 7 months was diagnosed with testicular cancer a few months back. He’s older than me and I’m away at college. We live 2 hours apart. I wanted to be there for him everyday, but I knew realistically I couldn’t be in person. We talked constantly and I sent my support as well as I could that way. I just found out, however, that his ex who lives where he does visited him alot during his treatment and that they have been spending alot of time together. He never told me this, I found out through a friend. Do you think because she was there for him during the treatment that he wants to get back with her, over possibly being with me since we aren’t officially boyfriend and girlfriend yet. Please help! He’s very important to me and I want him in my life, and to be in his.

She began taking her husband’s pain medication while he was dying from testicular cancer and became addicted to opiates. That was the only way she could cope with the barrage of bill collectors, his pain and their 3 children. After he died, she lost their home, insurance, their cars, everything and now lives with me. Suboxzone is a doctor prescribed treatment for opiate addiction but she is addicted to the treatment! She is in bed every day until 5-6 PM, doesn’t have bowel movements or periods, weighs 90 lbs.and eats almost nothing. If I could get a judge to make her a dependent or my ward, I could get her insurance through my work. I cannot afford to send her to Hazelden or another drug rehab. Please don’t tell me to turn to God. I need legal advice or a rehab grant. I am also supporting my other daughter and her 3 children. Anyone reading this who has a clue on how to save my daughter please respond. Time is running out for her.
