    So I have been kindly reminded that I haven't given any updates in here for a long... long time.

    Hell, it's about time!

    Chemotherapy is over. I can tell you it was not the best, happy times of my life. It was really an eye opener to me as to the suffering of other people, as I couldn't even guess what it would be to go through something like that at an older age or if you already have some other kind of illness or disability. Heck, now that I think of it I got it off easy, not only was my cancer not at all a big threat to my life but I started treatment entirely healthy and it only lasted for 2 months. Some people do this over six months and that would have been insane!

    As for what happens now I've done blood tests and an MRI but so far it has been inconclusive if I'll need another round of treatment or not. As far as how I'm feeling I'm doing great, but I have to keep doing exams every other week to check if there is any change. I can't yell "I'm healed" yet but it definitely feels good to be over with chemo, even if just for a while.

    Other than that I've been playing some Guild Wars 2 as some of you who have me on facebook must have known and I'm devoting a lot of my free time to play some tabletop modern boardgames. Today I might play some Galaxy Trucker and I encourage everyone here to at least buy a copy of Ticket to Ride to play with friends and family!

    Bumping this thread because I have to scan my balls

    Just a little pain since Saturday so I took a appointment with a doctor (I didn't know him so it was "Hello ! Happy new year !!! Look at my balls !!!!) He said there is nothing really wrong but still I have to scan just in case.

    When it started to hurt (not a lot, it's just an annoyance) I thought about this thread and OMG NO I DON'T WANT TO CUT IT !!! :sad:

    Wish me luck guys !

    it's probably nothing, you won't believe how many dudes have painful balls and even íf there is something strange like a little bulb or something; in most cases it's not cancer, or at least not a deadly form anyway. i'd be glad to have my balls scanned, just to be sure nothing is wrong! sucks to have a dude check 'm out tho... no female doctors around?

    Hey man, don`t assume the worst. In any case, I only had to remove the entirety of the testicle because it was way too advanced once I noticed it. My objective by telling my tale was to bring a little awareness to you all, so even if you had the same thing I did you`ll most likely get away with your balls intact

    And my last test results also came clean. I'm back in the saddle baby!

    Great news!

    Will your remaining ball grow in size to take up the space? So you'll have one gigantic super testicle in thy scrote? I hope that's the way it works.

    My balls are actually augmented now. I got myself a prosthetic ball.

    It's a great conversation starter.
