possible testicular cancer

by michaell127, Nov 06, 2009 08:24AM
I am a 30 year old male. Age 11 i had an operation to bring down an undescended testicle. 21 months ago i felt a lump in the same testicle and developed a dull ache. I already had epidydmal cysts in that testicle (diagnosed by previous ultrasound) but this lump felt different and new. Since then i have had 3 ultrasounds and tumor markers - all of which are negative. But now i have started having headaches and stomach aches. The lump doesnt appear to have increased in size and the dull ache has not got any worse. My doctor thinks i have convinced myself that i have cancer and the headaches and stomach aches are by products of that. I work in the scientific field so have some medical knowledge. Surely 3 negative ultrasounds means i should be in the clear...but what is causing the dull ache/headaches/stomach aches? thanks!
