You Just Gotta Talk Sometimes

Sorry for the double post, but I’ve always been very fond of the following quote I just never thought it would hit home like this…

“Because we do not know when we will die, we get to think of life as an inexhaustible well. Yet everything happens a certain number of times, and a very small number really. How many more times will you remember a certain afternoon of your childhood? Some afternoon that’s so deeply a part of your being that you can’t conceive of your life with out it. Perhaps four or five times more. Perhaps not even that. How many more times will you watch the full moon rise? Perhaps twenty. And yet it all seems limitless.”

  • Brandon Lee quoting The Sheltering Sky

You’ll get through it, and you’ll have the knowledge that there is one more thing that can’t stop you.

23

Life is not what happens to you, life is made by how you react to what happens to you. Best of luck.

24

Hope for the best. Probably a hydrocele, (back up in the epididymis). However Testicular cancer is greatest in your age group. This is not the end of the world since you caught it very early would have a very good outcome.

Just got back and here’s the skinny…

It’s a varacous(sp) hydrocele which I guess is basically a vain with excessive amounts of blood pumping through it. He said it’s nothing to really worry about and I should be fine…It may grow larger in a few years and I’ll need to get it drained.

He said I had good observation skills though at most people wouldn’t notice a lump like that, but it indeed is a lump and he’s glad I came in.

Funny side note: When he checked, I laughed uncontrollably because how uncomfortable I am with dudes touching my junk…

All the nurses heard.

26

Good to hear man, glad everything is ok.

27

Yup.

When I was being questioned about my sexual endeavors by the nurse our conversation went something like this…

“Do you masturbate?”

“The term…excessive comes to mind…”

blank stare “oh…”

doctor enters

“Doctor do you mind if I stay for this one? Purely for observation purposes…”

“That won’t be necessary nurse…”

Lately life has been going very well.

It’s kind of unreal actually. My coworker who I have been working with for just a little over a year has finally become my friend, we talk about music and working out. Our new boss even gives us muscle magazines…she likes to encourage working out and all that jazz.

I have a new boss, she’s a cool lady. Really nice and totally into her employees, she comes and visits our office a few times a week.

I’m a proud new uncle to a beautiful baby boy! Kids are so…interesting haha.

Last week, some contractors payed for my lunch because I “put up with them”, that same day we were told to go home 20 minutes early!

It was a start to an amazing weekend.

I met a girl, a kind of perfect girl. Have you ever met someone and completely and utterly hit it off with 'em?
Joking, play fighting, stealing secret looks at each other.

It was all really amazing, I mean…this chick gives me butterflies and makes me all giggly.

Why the hell would I tell you guys on T-Nation this?

Because everything good in life has a bitter taste eventually, yeah?

Last night I was taking a shower and noticed one of my nuts felt funny…

At first I thought, maybe it was just awkward positioning or something simple, I felt again, nope, it felt the same.

Do you know what it’s like to feel something the size of half a grape on your testicle when you’re only 23 years old?

I’m fucking terrified.

I’m too young. I have a doctors appointment later this week and I just… I just don’t want to be told something that no man young or old should EVER be told.

I was waiting for the big “Haha! Fuck you!” after that amazing week and it finally happened last night, the big fucking punch line.

I don’t know what to say.

Why shouldn’t it be told to any man? That you have a cyst on your nut and will have to get it cut off, stop being a bitch. I had one removed and my nut was about the size of an apple.

i feel like if it was honestly that big it would not fit in your sack or between your legs, and that sucks they had to remove something anyways

Hey man I’m glad to hear everything turned out to be a lot better than you anticipated.

I got a kick out of the Dr commending you on your observation skills when referring to finding something on your balls.

Also that story with the nurse is wicked. Hit it.

31

Just goes to show, you should always fondle your balls when you masturbate like the OP You might save your life.

Haha lol that would be physcologically damaging. Lucky the nurse didn’t stay? Or is the OP a hung guy?

Don’t answer that OP.

Yea, sucks when shit like that happens man, don’t look at it as it had to happen because your luck ran out or whatever. I don’t think anyone can go through life without being tested here and there. About 2 years ago, I woke up and went to the bathroom. Start relieving myself and my piss is blood red, not like a little tint of red, like i’m pissing straight blood. I start freaking out obviously and I am so nervous I don’t know what to do. I decide to see what happens the next time I go to the bathroom and same thing.

Anywyas, long story short, I go and get scoped to see whats wrong and they are like, nothing is wrong, might have just been a kidney stone or whatever but everything looks fine. Needless to say after a couple days it was reduced alot, and in a week and a half it was pretty much gone. But the only reason I share this is because a lot of times something happens that can freak you right out and it turns out to be nothing.

Hope everything goes well.

If I was pissing blood, I would charge five bucks for people to see.

glad it turned out OK.

Keep an eye on your test levels. Varicoceles are a common cause of hormonal issues. Can lead to fertility issues as well. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but a varicocele definitely beats the hell out of the alternative.

thats fucking hilarious. However good to hear its nothing more serious then that.

On a side note, how awesome that you just laughed the whole time, I laugh when im in pain and most people can’t figure either way about it.

I had an extremely sore ball for about a week before i went to the doc. I was convinced prior to the appointment my number was up. Testicle cancer here we come etc. And yes it’s VERY uncomfortable having a grown man handle the boys. He couldn’t conclude anything so he sent me to get a ultrasound.

In the ultrasound the nurse comes in and says do you mind if blah blah here sits in, she’s in training. I was like “sure” So these two ladies covered my balls in a type of lube and basically rubbed them for 30 mins while discussing them on the screen. Weird good weird considering the situation…

Any way tuned out to be nothing. Strained a nerve from all the full snatches i was doing. Stopped snatching. Pain went away…

Haven’t had two on the nutsack since… :frowning:

Damn that’s some scary stuff…You know what’s messed up My little cousin hasn’t even barely lived a 1/3 of his life and they discovered a tumor in his throat. They said it was benign and wasn’t going to spread …well he got surgery and everything was said to be fine. Next thing you know months later it came back…my cousins a soldier though and I hope he makes it through.

Be glad you’re fine…cheers my friend and many, many good years of health for all…
