AboutDoug Bank Expertise I know a great deal about all aspect of testicular cancer. I am a testicular cancer survivor, and have run a testicular cancer website since 1996. If I do not know the answer to a question, I have access to a number of my own world-class experts to get the correct answer.
Please note that I am not an expert when it comes to other cancers. If your question involves something other than testicular cancer or a cancer of that general region, please ask another expert.

Question Hi doug, its patrick again.
I just thought I would follow up with you and let you know the results that I got back...
The doctor sent my blood test, urine test, and lab report to the urologist and its....good news!!! :)
It is not testicular cancer and nothing to be worried about. And about that lump, she said that it is non-cancerous...(i forgot what she called it)
I also wanted to thank you for your time and answers that you gave me.
Thanks again!
Patrick
Answer That sounds good. It would be better to know what the lump is, though. Do your parents remember? If not, call the doc back and ask for the name again. Also, keep doing self exams and go back to the doctor if something changes. While I do not doubt their assessment of the situation, a blood and urine test cannot rule out testicular cancer.
