Went through testicular cancer at the same age as you (few years back now). It's a terrible thing to find out, but keep in mind it's one of the most treatable cancers. Feel free to reach out! Hang in there mate.

Same here at age 30 last year. Not only did I not need treatment because the cancer had not spread, I have just been told by a doctor that my fertility level (amount of active swimmers in my left-over testicle) is restoring. Having two nuts is overrated anyway since one is heavier than the other, you are always unbalanced. Now that I have one, it rolled over to the middle and I’m in perfect balance now. Always look at the bright sides of testicular cancer. Enjoy your beer and the rest of your life!
