My fiance is from the country and have plans on moving to Germany eventually. Are there any places I should visit in Germany that stood out to you?

while size is a factor - any unevenness of the testicle and partly hardening of regions are very relevant symptoms - i'm no doctor though. Just go every half a year- all of this takes maybe an hour and you can have a relaxed half year :)

Well that sucks.
So what now?
Stoping treatment and world traviling until you drop or something?

I was at work the 23.12.2019. I had already seen a few videos people ( namely fourious pete https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCspJ-h5Mw9_zeEhJDzMpkkA) who had testicular cancer. So because why not check my marbles on the company clock? I felt a small bump and decided - so that i can have a peaceful Christmas to go to a the urology immediately - take the rest of the day of. Christmas is HERE :)
My doctor got down there to feel ma ball and said ' I cannot feel anything but lets make an ultrasound of the ball. He saw something now i'm here!
Still, go for you checkups people, its over immediately and if you don't get a freak of nature cancer (like me) then u will be fine! Recovery rate is >90%

You‘re a barbarian and should be shamed for all of eternity as well as sentenced to drink every Norgerl in every Hofbräuhaus.

Hast du Lebensweisheiten? Besonders an die Menschen, die das kurze Leben nicht zu Schätzen wissen. Was hat dir das Leben beigebracht, was du den anderen gerne beibringen würdest?

How are you handling the news? Seriously I don't know how I'd handle it in this situation and you're here on reddit doing an AMA. Where do you get your strength?

I guess my biggest question would be what you are doing mentally to cope with the knowledge of your own demise? Have you accepted it?
I’m so sorry this is happening to you. At least you can say you put up a hell of a fight and are going out swinging. Fuck cancer and your bravery is inspiring.
When the time comes, rest easy and know you’ll be in a better place than this crazy world.

Wow, sorry to hear that, man. You are so brave, I admire that you are willing to share this very vulnerable time with us in this fashion. What are the things that you focus on at this point? And what are things you want to do but fear you might not have enough time to? What is something that brings you joy despite the circumstances? And fwiw, good luck. Maybe there is a miracle that can still happen. If there's some combination of treatments that miight work, do try it out. Peace to you.

Wow, a story that will be on a late night series of some medical show. On a serious note, is there any chance that you'll make it to recovery?

From someone I know: when it was double the size of the other.
Regularly check for the size of them. But not too often, because gradual change might make it less noticeable.

What are your options, Palliative care or continued treatment? Are you afraid? Why/why not?

I'm so sorry, man, that's so tough. I wanted to ask, how do you manage your feelings? Don't you feel extremely sad or angry at life for this happening to you so young? I can't even imagine. I have a medical condition that worsened suddenly at 24, making me lose my career. It's irrelevant compared to what you're going through, and still I can't help but feel so angry, and I don't think those feelings will ever go away. How do you deal with this?

Cancer and Alzheimers are my two biggest fears in life. How does your brain cope, knowing there's a high chance of death? Do you feel peace or are you depressed? Thanks for this AMA and good luck!

Where abouts did you feel the bump? On the ball itself?
