@@mr-yy8sd Hi I have Got Testicular Torsion in both of my Testicles and both of my Testicles have been Damaged - What do you say of that

[@mr-yy8sd]

That's insane when did that happen to you and how was it treated ?

[@abhinavsanjana]

@@mr-yy8sd The First Torsion Happened in Adolescent Stage and My Mother made a Blame Upon me about that - Instead of Getting me Care - My Mother Created Havoc - At Last, I Didn't get Any Treatment and My Testicle got Shrinked - It has Not Removed Since then The Second Torsion Happened last Year in Month of November 2021 and I got Surgery to Fix it in My Right Testicle but It again Got Twisted Even After Orchiopexy - That is Even After Surgical Fixation - This Time Also My Mother Created Havoc - My Family is Completely Dysfunctional and Even after losing of Second Testicle - My Family, has No Remorse of That

Thank you for letting us know about this! Carcinoma in situ is a form of cancer that has spread across the body. The irregular cells, also known as stage 0 cancer, do not invade surrounding tissue in the same manner that cancer cells do. Certain carcinomas in situ, on the other hand, are often treated because they have the potential to become cancerous.

[@Shrasha]

Awaiting my scan. So helpful. This information is great!

[@dr.beckyspelman]

So glad!

[@Shrasha]

Had the scan, so much more dignified and easier than the mind thinks. Back in the hospital on Tuesday for more tests.

[@mr-yy8sd]

@@Shrasha how are you now. I know man I went through the same stuff. If you want to talk I'm open about going though it to help other guys.

[@alvinromo]

How far was the time between both testicular cancer situations.

[@leanlion1562]

What's the food needs to eat?

[@TheJostler]

I'm starting carboplatin chemotherapy for a Stage 1B seminoma the day after tomorrow, thankfully one round! Thanks for the video! Ultra helpful.

[@dr.beckyspelman]

Thank you for sharing, we hope you enjoyed the video

[@mr-yy8sd]

Andy how are you now ? Are you cancer free ?

[@TheJostler]

@@mr-yy8sd so far so good! Cancer free, I’ve got a scan coming up, but no issues thus far!

[@mr-yy8sd]

I'm scared I feel something weird and I'm having it checked out this coming Sunday. Would you be ok to talk to me about what you went through ? Your young it most have been weird telling your parents dealing with it right ?

[@TheJostler]

@@mr-yy8sd I’m in my mid 30s. It was weird telling them at first, but they were extremely supportive. They were definitely concerned, but it helped a ton telling someone. I waited until I got results to tell them too. Going through the process of getting checked out was pretty stressful, but I’m so glad I got it done sooner than later. Are you getting checked by a regular doc or a urologist?

[@louisronan5903]

I went for an ultrasound about 8 weeks ago and they found THREE objects within my testicle. Doctor say me down and said it could be cancer so I was of course worried. Anyway, went to the urologist. He felt me, said everything was fine and my blood work was normal as well. It has emotional lot wrecked me though. I spent five weeks thinking I had cancer. These objects were described as “intra-testicular hypoechoic lesions”, and are benign. Even growths within the testicle it’s self can be benign.

[@richardlaed1582]

do you also have lower back pain?

[@louisronan5903]

@@richardlaed1582 : No not atm. I know that can be a symptom though.

[@richardlaed1582]

@@louisronan5903 i have a visible veins around my testicle and it's a varicocele.

[@louisronan5903]

@@richardlaed1582 : Yeah, a lot of people think they have cancer down there when it’s not actually cancer. Over 80% of lumps and objects are benign. Glad you’re okay though mate.

[@paul8513]

I had this and the doctors thought it was cancer. I ended up losing a testicle for no reason so you’re quite lucky.
