Chances of dying from testicular cancer?

75% of testicular cancers are cured regardless of stage.

I would question if he is telling the truth. This is an uncommon cancer to begin with and there is an average of less than 450-500 cases a year in males under 20 years-old in the entire country. He should have also had surgery by now.

Also, a family doctor would not handle this a urologist would. I would ask his mother.

And after 3 weeks his doctor would know if it has spread or not.

Dying From Testicular Cancer

Depends, there are different stages of testicular cancer. If it reaches to a certain point, they have a treatment that wil extend the life by 3 months, just enough time to allow the patient to say his goodbye's and get his affairs in order.

I used to work for a nonprofit company that provided free money for these medications. Based off the fact we don't know, nobody can be certain.

Better ask or consult with his family or doctor. Good luck.

Well I've researched this a lot, as I am 15 and ******* terrified at the idea. Due to his age I would estimate that he has caught this in early stages, but his kidney failure may affect his susceptibility, it might make him weaker. If he HAS caught it early on then it probably hasn't spread, but tests can be done to see if it has. It usually spreads to the lymphatic system first, if it isn't there then he should be fine. He WILL have to have the affected testicle removed, but this does not affect sexual performance, drive or sperm count, as he 'has a spare'. Send him my wishes, he's young and strong at that age. He should be completely fine, just get it taken off as soon as possible and do not let the NHS mess you about. Good luck :)

you may die of any tyoe of maximum cancers, all of us die of something, sometime. yet, many greater human beings are dealt with succesfully than die from maximum cancers so there is not any genuine clarification for a 14 12 months olf to be demanding. At your age you're greater probable to die in a vehicle coincidence.
