To say this week has been an interesting one well lets just say thats an understatment now i look at my life as a fairly uncomplicated one but that was untill 2 weeks last thursday
There i was lounging in the tub wee bit of lynx shower gel and the usual array of bath toys (keep it clean) few rubber ducks and some nice floating candles watch out for them it dont half sting and as you do going throug my washing routine . shock dismay what the hell is that oh yes a lump bloody hell i thought that cant be natural but i knew it wasnt i tell you i felt like someone had dropped an anvil on my head i went brain dead so what do i do no choice i went as usual to work the next morning trying to keep it together made an appointment for that afternoon home wash clean pants well my mum would have had my guts for garters if i had forgot
God it seemed like ages sitting in the waiting room but my name was called and with that knotted feeling i went in
The conversation with the doc went somthing like this who was young enough to be my daughter
DOC: goodafter noon how can i help
ME: well i have found this lump
DOC: ok where
ME: on my testicle
DOC:which one
Me: left ( i thought dis it matter i found a lump)
DOC: ok are you sexually active
ME:(i was gonna say well i can do a few moves but thought it unwise) well if once in the last 10 year counts then yes ( she did not find this amusing)
DOC: ok i do have to have a look
please go behind that curtain and...............................................
so i did what i was told first of all she said i can't find it well that was a dent to the old ego right away so i repositioned myself so she could
and after much squeezing( and im sure if she had them then she may have been more gentle ) she proclaimed oh yes you do have a lump (NO SHTT!!! i thought) ok you can get dressed now
so what now, well i cant be sure what it is so i will make an appointment for you for the urology dept and in the meentime take these antibiotics which i did try not to touch it too much as you may cause more damage (what a statment that was )
ok i said and as i walked to the dore she uttered those imortal words TRY NOT TO WORRY ok doc i wont give it another thought 
so that was that to be honest i did keep it in perspective and did try not to worry but it aint easy but i do have good friends and the help they were i can only hope to repay someday but to detract from subject matter not all was well at home either i had a sick computer too it was infected by some sort of msn virus which was sent to my daughter so i had to fork out a wad to get some good antivirus so sorted it was well no i came in next day and it was dead as a do do only thing on the monitor was NTLDR file missing please press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart which i did for several hours before i gave up
Action plan rescue disc this was fairly straightfoward but i had added extra hard drive and better sound card which i could not find discs for so it took me several days to sort out and re load with help from the boss my new antivirus so be aware of this virus and dont accept files through msn its not worth it anyhow meenwhile back to impending doom
i duly receved a letter of appointment for the hospital on the friday so it was 2 weeks from finding lump to hospital now thats not bad now i had been through this once before but the lump was located in a diffirent area and turned out to be a syst but somthing wasnt right bout this and i was lets say a big bit scared but what choice did i have so with a mate in tow went off to meet my new friend
Now it didn't take long this guy knew his job and with great care had a feel of the offending growth (and i think he had a bit of empathy for my plight as there was no pain involved in the check this time ) ok take a seat he said
well you do have a growth and i am posative its not going to kill you as you prob thought ( mind reader too such talent) well words cannot express how i felt i really felt in limbo for 2 weeks and i could have cryed but i just grinned like a cheshire cat instead so what happens now i said well we will do an ultra sound and if its not causing any problems leave it alone
wel there is a moral to this story isnt there i personally check myself once a month due to the last lump it made me aware of how impotrtant this is and if it had went the other way well it may still have been a happy ending for the fact that i found it early could have just saved my life
so if yer a bit shy guys well judst dont tell anyone your doing it but GET IT CHECKED it may save your life you would be nuts not to (pardon the punn)
ok se ya all next week and remember be good
