about one of my testicles being hard compared to the other. they feel totally different and there are hard parts connected to it. The doc felt around and told me it felt like there were abnormalities.
im going in for an ultrasound next week. i really hope its something benign, or just nothing at all. But shit, its been a good run.
remember to check your boys every now and then.

31 in 7 days or so. no history of cancer in the family, but ive lived a little more recklessly than others in my family so environmental cant be ruled out as a cause if it is cancer.
yeah, I really really hope it is nothing.

try not to think about such things until you get an answer. it could still be benign. don't stress out over something that's not for sure.
please keep us updated!

Thank you all  .
Had to take a step back from the whole ordeal and just remember the bigger picture in life. This is all part of the experience. God has been really good to me in so many ways, I will take whatever is coming with open arms.
Ill def. keep everyone posted

I met with several doctors on friday, a urologist, and completed x-rays, ultrasounds, blood tests, urine etc... there is a mass that covers 60% of my right testicle. I am scheduled for surgery on monday (radical orchiectomy) to have it removed so they can biopsy to determine whether it is benign or malignant. The biggest concern is if it is cancerous, to make sure it hasnt spread to other parts of my body. initial tests show no enlargement of my lymph nodes, which could be promising, though we have yet to read the blood tests or x-rays. I am staying hopeful that this is limited to one region.
I am hoping that its not cancerous at all. If it is the next steps will include further tests to determine if it has metastasized, in which case there would likely be some radiation therapy, and worst case some other surgery to removed other affected areas. Worst worst case they give me a timeline, and I hop on my motorcycle and ride away Wilson & House style.
One pretty nice thing is that I found out my insurance through work is pretty good. Regardless of the cost of all this my end caps out at $1500, and it might only cost me $100. Go Aetna! I had to go to HR cause its open enrollment and I wanted to ensure I would stay covered through all this, and fucking broke down in front of the HR lady, I feel kinda bad for putting something heavy on her like that, but I guess it was better being someone who wasn't close to me. Trying not to get all emotional in front of family/friends, etc... even though I probably should just be honest with all this stuff, I don't want to stress people out. The Shroomery is now my emotional canvas 
Thank you all for the support  . I do really appreciate all the the positive vibes. I'll make sure to keep updates coming.
Much Love

I have been thinking about you, I hope your surgery goes well on Monday, also glad to hear you have good health care insurance, one less thing to stress about.
Stay positive like you are, before you know it this situation will be resolved, and normal life returns, keep us up-dated.

post surgery.
fuck this hurts. i couldnt pee at first even though i had to. they sayd i couldnt leave the hospital until it happened. i had to train myself to pee again. what sucks is this incision is right at my abdoment so any pressure buildup pushes right on the stictcing. i can pee pretty better now but am bloated and need to go poo, which is proving difficult. toko some magnesium citrate and am hoping it will kick in soon.
abdominal incisinos remove like any ability for normal movement. truly is the core of the body and necessary for movement. everything fucking hurts rightnow.
get some weird pain in my sack too where they removed the right testicle. looks like they siched my scrotum up against something cause it doesnt fall naturally anymore. seems like theres something pulling it up. doctor didnt prescribe any pain meds but lukily my parents have like a stockpile of vicodin.
i dont know why he didnt prescrible any, maybe cause th ethought it would mess with my bowels or something, and that might be the case. not giving up hope, i am staying optimistic that this will be the worst of it, and with some luck and a bit of recuperation i will soon be able to return to my normal life.
